"She is your mirror, shining back at you with a world of possibilities. She is your witness, who sees you at your worst and best, and loves you anyway. She is your partner in crime, your midnight companion, someone who knows when you are smiling, even in the dark. She is your teacher, your defense attorney, your personal press agent, even your shrink. She is your sister." ~ Barbara Alpert
As with all sororities, sisterhood is the main aspect. That’s why we join the sorority. For the sisterhood, the support, the friendships that last a lifetime. For those of us who are far away from families during college, your sorority becomes your home away from home. They’re the ones that drive you to the doctors when you get sick, they are your shoulder to try on when you get a bad grade or the boy you were going out with turns out to be a jerk. Your sisters are your livelihood.
In Tri Delta, sisterhood is the main focus. Our “perpetual bond
of friendship” translates to Delta Only events, where we go to the movies, ropes courses, and other events that are strictly limited to the members of Delta Delta Delta. The yearly sisterhood retreat has us travel to a surprise location, where we bond through different activities. The new member retreat, for the latest pledge class is a comprehensive bonding experience that brings the pledge class even closer than before.
"There's a special kind of freedom sisters enjoy.
Freedom to share innermost thoughts, to ask a favor, to show their true feelings. The freedom to simply be themselves." -Anonymous
