I chose Delta Zeta because I knew I was entering a sisterhood that valued leadership, personal growth, and making a difference, both on campus and in the community. But what stood out about Delta Zeta was the unwavering support and genuine bonds the women share. It's not just about being part of a group; it's about being empowered to be your best self while uplifting others.
Delta Zeta offers more than just a place to belong; it's a foundation for developing skills that will last a lifetime. Whether through philanthropy, leadership opportunities, or the deep friendships we build, Delta Zeta has given me a platform to grow and make a real impact.
Delta Zeta is a place where I can be myself, challenge myself, and make lifelong connections, and I am so grateful to call Delta Zeta home.

II chose Delta Zeta because as soon as I walked into the house during recruitment, I could sense a real community of friends around me. When I joined Delta Zeta, I didn't just get a community, but a supportive group of friends that pushed me to be the woman I am today. I have been blessed with some of the best friends I could ever ask for, opportunities on campus I would have never had other wise, growth in leadership, and a college experience that will always put a smile on my face. I can honestly say joining Delta Zeta has been one of the best decisions I could have made and I will forever be grateful.

I chose Delta Zeta because of the community and sisterhood I witnessed before I even thought of a sorority as an option for myself. Then as soon as I started talking to girls about thinking about joining they were nothing but uplifting and welcoming. Everyday I am reassured knowing I have a community of sisters around me to offer advice, support, and anything else I could possibly need.

I chose Delta Zeta because of the steadfast love I felt during recruitment. I was very much an introvert when I first came in, but during my time in chapter, I have been encouraged to go for multiple positions all of which have allowed me to find my voice and my confidence in myself. Delta Zeta has allowed me to grow my character and aim for different opportunities whether that be jobs or internships that I never would have imagined myself to do. I am so thankful for Delta Zeta and all of the amazing women it has placed in my life and genuinely would not change my experience in Delta Zeta for anything else!
