I am truly touched by the depth of significance this chapter holds in my heart. The privilege of being a Delta Gamma is rooted in the lasting and meaningful nature of our sisterhood. The incredible compassion, intelligence, and unwavering support that I have experienced in DG is something I will forever hold with. I am filled with gratitude for the way Gamma Kappa has supported me through the toughest times and cheered me on during the most joyful moments of my college journey. Delta Gamma has provided me with my turest and my best friends and I could not be more grateful. I have grown tremendously since joining my home in Delta Gamma, and cannot wait to see what the future holds for all of our members and potential new members. I am filled with immense love and gratitude for you, DG, that will last a lifetime.

VP Social Standards

I chose Delta Gamma because of its unwavering commitment to sisterhood and service. From the moment I stepped into the DG house, I felt a sense of belonging and support. For me, sisterhood means having a network of strong, compassionate women who lift each other up, celebrate successes, and provide comfort during challenging times. It's about being part of a community where I can be my authentic self, free of judgment or expectations. Delta Gamma's values of friendship, service, and scholarship resonate deeply with me. I'm inspired by the way DG sisters come together to make a positive impact in their communities, whether through philanthropic initiatives or supporting each other's personal growth and academic pursuits. Joining Delta Gamma was one of the best decisions I've ever made, and I'm proud to be part of a sisterhood that stands for something greater than ourselves.

I chose DG because, even during the brief conversations during recruitment, I could truly see how incredible and special this group of women was. Not only were the girls so kind, but I could also tell that they genuinely loved being a part of this chapter. Whatever their interests may be, everyone is passionate and hardworking in their respective hobbies. Now, in my third year as a member of this chapter, I can see that my initial thoughts from recruitment hold true, and I am honored to be a DG. I have met my best friends through this chapter, and I am excited to see what the future holds for us!

VP Communications

I say with complete confidence that joining DG has been one of the most formative decisions of my college experience. As an executive officer, more than ever, I continue to be impressed, inspired, and eagerly inclined to pursue new personal and professional paths because of the women of this chapter. Living and learning with my fellow DGs – who are without a doubt, my closest friends at UCSB – is a fulfilling, hilarious, heartwarming and invaluable experience that I’m not only eternally grateful for, but know will last a lifetime.

VP Programming

Becoming a member of DG has proven to be the most rewarding choice I've made during my time at UCSB. Coming from across the country, I arrived in Santa Barbara knowing no one. However, during the recruitment process, I witnessed the strong bonds shared among the women in this chapter, and I felt an instant desire to become part of it. Through DG, I've encountered remarkable women—individuals who have become my closest friends and my family away from home. The support and encouragement I've received from these women have played a pivotal role in my personal growth and development, shaping me into the individual I am today. I am eternally grateful I now get to be a part of DG's CMT!

VP Foundation

Hello! I am so excited to be on CMT 2024:) Although I could give a thousand reasons about why joining Delta Gamma was one of the best decisions I've ever made, I will keep it short. DG and the sisterhood it has given me has truly shaped my college experience and who I am today. All of my best friends (that I will have for a lifetime) I have met through DG. All the women in DG are some of the most smart, driven, kind, fun-loving and loyal people I have ever met. Being in DG makes me inspired to be the best version of myself and I am so excited for all that DG has in store for me!

Joining DG has shaped my experience at UCSB for the better and I am eternally grateful for all of the wonderful women in this chapter. I have met my best friends, the best family, and the most inspiring leaders that encouraged me to take on a leadership position and I could not be happier with my Delta Gamma experience. I chose DG because, as cheesy as it sounds, I felt so at home and welcomed by all of the members. ITB!! :)
