Nine teen -hundred- ninety-six brought about many great memories for the sisters of Delta Zeta sorority. Former President Tracy Solow said, This year was one of the best years our chapter has had. lean only imagine how great the next year will be, and how sad I am going to be that I am not here to be a part of it. Solow added, The A reason the year was so strong was because in addition to con- tinuing valued traditions, such as excellence in the Intramural program, the year was boosted by a number of positive changes. The fall semester brought about many welcomed changes for the chapter. With a new house mother, Cheryl Grega, the atmosphere in the house improved substantially, said House Manager Jenny Slate. She made the house a home. Fall Rush was also filled with a number of changes that were very beneficial.
