ALPHA GAMMA DELTA ,111 ' ' ,11 ' III HIM ( ' Kill Will r Trusting Sisters A home is a place where one can be oneself, full of vices and virtues with loving acceptance of others; Alpha Gamma Delta was one such place. A home away from home. During the 1993-94 school year women of the 1322 Hill St. developed a greater sense of sisterhood and had a great time doing so. A major sisterhood event came in the fall of 1993. The sisters of Alpha Gamma Delta made a trip to the University of Michigan Recreation Area to take part in the Challenge Program. The activity was organized by Vice-President of Fraternity of Education Valerie Gildhaus. The event took place shortly after the induction of their beautiful new pledges. The reason for Alpha Delta ' s participation in the Challenge Program was multifaceted. First, it was a great way to spend a sunny afternoon together, before the weather and academic pressures sent everyone in different directions. Second, the program enabled the new pledges to meet many of their future sisters. And, most importantly, the sisters of Alpha Gamma Delta spent the day learning about one another by developing a bond based on trust. Trust was developed through a variety of activities which not only asked the women to take physical risks, but also emotional gambles. Through such an event, leaders, respect and strong bonds were formed. Philanthropically, the women of Alpha Gamma Delta spent their Halloween with the men of Theta Xi and the children of Pound House. This annual event ensured that everyone was in the full spirit of Halloween; men and women, parents and children were all dressed in the most creative costumes and ready for trick-or-treating through the halls of the Alpha Gamma Delta chapter house. This event gave the young children of Ann Arbor a safe and warm place to trick-or-treat with their classmates and parents. The project was a success for everyone involved. As always, the Alpha Gamma Delta Barndance was a huge success. It was an evening of square dancing, hay rides and laughter. Heidi Crowley, the engagement chairman and organizer of the event said, Our Barndance was well-organized and all members had a great time! Everyone looked forward to doing it again next year. Overall, 1993-94 was a great year for the sisters of Alpha Gamma Delta. The women were involved in organizations in every corner of the University and the city of Ann Arbor. The 1 993-94 academic year was filled with sisterhood, community activity and most of all fun. The sisters wished to extend the best of luck to their departing senior members, they will be missed. -Kristy Brugar member 208 Greeks Andrew and Tania cuddle up on the ride to the annual Alpha Gamma Delta Barndance.
