Loving.
First up - let's dive into the "loving" section of this Alpha Gam chapter. Caroline talked to me about her sweet sisterhood, and how much fun they have together. When asked her favorite event, Caroline answered their most recent Valentine's Sisterhood. And honestly, after looking at their snack table, can you blame her? Those chocolate covered strawberries look to DIE for! There's truly nothing better than getting to celebrate Galentines with your gals and eating yummy food. And wear pink ofc! To make this event even sweeter, each girl got to make a Valentine for another sister and give it to them. Talk about spreading the love!
Another thing we love - smart girlies! And these squirrels are definitely that! Last semester, their chapter had an overall GPA of 3.47, the HIGHEST out of all the sororities! Their 92 members have some serious brains :) Not only are they smart, but they love to excell in all areas. They have received the Annulet award in 2020 for overall excellence from IHQ! Smart, excellent, loving on each other ... you gotta love the Gamma Xi chapter!

Leading.
Next up - leading! AGD is a powerhouse on campus wehen it comes to giving back. Every Fall, they throw a campus wide event called "Rock-A-Thon." This is a dance and lip sync competition - a Greek life classic! A fun day filled with dancing, music, and you friends ... what could make it be better?? Well, maybe the fact that Alpha Gam raises a TON of money for their philanthropy at this event!! Last semester, these ladies raised a whopping $32,000 for Fighting Hunger! That is some serious cash going straight to the good :)
Their philanthropic efforts don't end there, though! Every Spring, the Gamma Xi chapter puts on "Gossip Squirrel," another successful philanthropy event. During this week, they usually have a blood donation event and then make candy grams. All year round goodness for an all around good group of girls!

Lasting.
Finally, lasting. Being in a sorority isn't just for four years it's for a lifetime (as cheesy as that may be, it's true.) By being a member of Alpha Gamma Delta at Murray State University, you get a group of girls that will always be there for you - good times and bad. One good time in particular, their Crush Dance! They had this love themed function last November - the perfect excuse to dress up and let loose with your sisters! It's moments like those you'll remember for a lifetime (cheesy again, but accurate.)
Caroline talked about how special her Gamma Xi chapter was, and it did not disappoint in the slightest. Since Murray State is a smaller school, you're able to get to know everyone around you. With bigger schools, it's easy to get lost in the crowd or not get to know everyone in your pledge class. Caroline is super grateful to be able to know each one of her sisters and feel truly connected to them. This semester, she can't wait to create new and spunky designs for the whole design to rock!
