Here at Delta Gamma we pride ourselves with our commitment to friendship and service, as well as our commitment to our members, ensuring a welcoming space to be the most authentic version of themselves. We encourage high qualities of character which our collegians will bring forth with them beyond graduation. Delta Gamma has been said to be a feeling rather than a place, and we thank you for visiting our website and allowing us to share that with you!
"Delta Gamma aims to foster high ideals of friendship among women, to promote their educational and cultural interest, to create in them a true sense of social responsibility, and to develop in them the best qualities of character...Delta Gamma is for hope, for strength, and for life."
A message from our vp: membership <3
With the start of the semester just around the corner, I am so excited to return to campus and begin formal recruitment! I am so happy that you are interested in recruitment and want to learn more about the Alpha Lambda chapter of Delta Gamma at Drake University. Choosing to go through recruitment is one of the best decisions I have made, and I’m thrilled to share the wonderful and fulfilling experiences that Delta Gamma has provided me.
My name is Annika Hurd (she/her/hers) and I am Delta Gamma’s Vice President of Membership for 2023. I went through recruitment in 2020, and have loved being involved in my chapter and the Fraternity and Sorority Life (FSL) community ever since! Now, it’s my goal to make sure that you find the chapter that you can call home for the rest of your time at Drake.
Every chapter on campus is full of scholars, leaders, philanthropists, and friends. The Drake FSL community strives to leave a positive, lasting impact, whether it is within our individual chapters, across campus, or even the Des Moines community. I am so happy you are interested in being part of this amazing family!
During my recruitment experience, I was able to meet some of the most incredible individuals, who I am grateful to call my role models and even luckier to call my friends. I look up to the other members of my chapter and their endless support– I cannot imagine my life without them. They have encouraged me to explore opportunities that I never would have thought to consider. From changing my major to accepting leadership roles, my chapter has been a safe space to grow into my most confident, authentic self.
My fellow DGs are my shoulder to cry on and the first people to celebrate my accomplishments with me, no matter how small. They are my study buddies, movie marathon partners, and the ones that will just sit around and talk for hours with me. We laugh with each other, support one another, and inspire each other to always Do Good.
I formally invite you to participate in Recruitment 2023! This is the opportunity to find your people and share feelings of acceptance, comfort, and genuine happiness. Recruitment is about finding YOUR home and the place where you feel special. On behalf of everyone here at Delta Gamma – Alpha Lambda Chapter, we can’t wait to share this exciting journey with you, and I hope you all find a place to grow within the FSL community.
