It has been a busy, but fun semester for University of
Houston (UH) Delta Gammas!
On February 13th, Delta Gamma’s enjoyed a fun
Valentine’s Day Mixer with the Kappa Sigma Chapter at UH. The boys of Kappa Sigma got creative with the
theme and set out a variety of ties on a table as we walked into their
house. Each DG was encouraged to take a
tie, and then find who it belonged to by talking to multiple Kappa Sigma’s. It was a great way to get to know the boys,
and spend time with our sisters.

Delta Gamma also welcomed five new members for spring
2012! The “Anchorbabies” were welcomed
with excitement as they received their bids and arrived to the Delta Gamma
house.
On Bid night, Delta Gamma hosted a huge celebration to
welcome the new girls of DG! We all introduced ourselves and then loosened up
with a dance party. Each new member
received a cute bag of goodies, with DG accessories and decorations. We are so thankful for each of our new
members.

The spring 2012 semester is clearly off to a busy start for
UH Delta Gamma’s, but we always make time for the most important thing –
philanthropy events, and reaching out to the community. Not only does Delta Gamma support Service for
Sight, we participate in many other fraternities and sororities events, as well
as national events.
In February, 13 UH Delta Gamma’s participated in the
national philanthropy event called “Dance On.” Dance
On is one of 100+ Dance Marathon programs run by students at universities and
colleges across the country. All proceeds from Dance On go directly to the
local Children’s Miracle Network children’s hospital, Texas Children's
Hospital. Dance On is present to create emotional support and financial
awareness for the families.
Furthermore, Delta Gamma is already putting a team together
to participate in Kappa Sigma’s annual softball tournament, which raises money
for their philanthropy. Profits from
Kappa Sigma’s softball tournament will go towards their Military Heroes
Campaign which was designed to honor and aid the thousands of wounded military
veterans returning from active duty. The campaign focuses, in particular, on
providing charitable assistance to the Fisher House Foundation, a segment of
the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund that provides free housing to wounded veterans
and their families throughout the duration of rehabilitation.
In short, UH Delta Gamma’s are very active in the community
and on campus. DG’s anticipate a busy
semester, filled with philanthropy events, social events and more. We are dedicated to maintaining the vision of
classy women, enriching our lives and the lives of those around us.
