CELEBRATING SISTERHOOD


Date Nights & Formals
Each semester, we host two date nights and a formal at the end of classes. Date nights usually follow fun themes like "dynamic duos" or "disco" and offer a chance for the whole sorority to gather in a social setting. We hold our formals at nice, local venues such as Gratitude and Grace or the Lakewatch Inn. Formals are typically the last time we are all able to gather together before the semester ends.
Big/Little
After being initiated, every new member goes on a number of "sister dates" with the girls in the member class above them. Once everyone has gotten to know each other, new members are paired with their "Big Sister" and Big/Little week begins. New members receive baskets of gifts and surprise deliveries from their anonymous Big Sister. At the end of the week, Big Sisters reveal their identity to their littles in festive ways. Big/Little is not only a really fun week for all of our members, but it is also a great way for new members to get to know the older girls. Having a Big Sister on campus is like having a mentor and role model who is always there to support you.
