In Fall 2018, I moved almost four hours away from home to attend the University of Windsor. I was scared, nervous, anxious, you name it, I was worried. I wanted to find my home away from home, I wanted to get involved and learn everything I could about the place I was moving to. That's where Delta Zeta comes in.

I was so nervous during my first recruitment event, I almost didn't go! A room full of girls I had never met before? Absolutely terrifying, but these incredible women were some of the most welcoming people I had ever met. I had never stepped in a room and immediately thought that I belonged there until meeting all these amazing women. The women of the Delta Zeta Sorority made me feel welcome right away, they made it clear that this was where I could find my home away from home, all while getting involved with my community and my campus. These sorority women were leaders on campus and in their communities. They held themselves and each other to high academic standards. They championed philanthropic causes for people in our community and people around the world. They knew that they were part of something bigger and had to consistently crusade for justice. They empowered each other and every woman and human that they met. Almost three years later, and every girl I've met along the way are still the same champions of empowerment that they were back in 2018.
