In the women ' s division. Alpha Delta Pi took first place with a selec- tion of songs that came Straight from the Heart. Songs from their childhoods were performed, includ- ing a touching tribute to Mehssa Bond, a sorority sister who passed away over the Christmas holidays. Second place went to Alpha Gamma Delta as they performed songs on a Sentimental Journey. Jailhouse Rock, and Staying Alive were some of the more memorable tunes done by the Alpha Gams. Phi Mu ' s Big Chill and Zeta Tau Alpha ' s Winter Wonderland closed out the program before Bob Glenn announced the winners. According to Glenn, Step Sing was a great success and a perfect way to get everyone back in the mood for school. I thought we had an excellent amount of participation, and the Greeks obviously put a lot of hard work and dedication into their per- formance.
