1. We are anchored in friendship.

I honestly could not ask for better sisterhood. When you walk into the Delta Gamma House, you instantly feel welcomed by 419 of your amazing sisters. I love going to all of our sisterhood events, from Six Flags to Bachelor night. And I know that there will always be a DG to call at 1 a.m., whether I need a ride back from the library, need to vent about boys over FaceTime, or just want to go grab some midnight sushi.

2. Working with Service For Sight has been an amazing experience.

From playing with preschoolers at AIDB to our "Adopt a Grandparent" program, I have been able to make a positive impact in my community. I have never had a chance to work with the visually impaired before I joined Delta Gamma and DG has shown me that the philanthropy side of our sorority can be just as exciting as the sisterhood and social events.

3. Anchor Splash

If you have never been to Anchor Splash and you are a fan of dancing, swimming, fraternity boys, or want to just benefit a good cause, I would encourage you to get a ticket next year. It is a fundraising event unlike any other. More than 125 DG chapters host Anchor Splash events nationwide. Anchor Splash is a day dedicated to fun and raising awareness about visual impairments.

4. Fried Fridays

We have fried pickles.

5. I have met girls from all over the country.

Spending a whole month across the country from my sisters over winter break was one of the hardest things I've had to this year. But true friendship isn't about being inseparable, it's about being separated and nothing changes.

6. My big/little fam is #SquadGoals.

She's half my soul and half my heart. Without my DG big, I'd fall apart. I just want to take a second to thank my big for being the role model, best friend, therapist, mom, study buddy, cheerleader, partner-in-crime and lifelong sister that I need.

7. DG helps us develop lifelong skills and gives us opportunities to be leaders.

One reason I rushed DG was because of all of the leadership opportunities that we offer. Delta Gamma is the only organization that I am a part of that will allow freshman to take on director positions and leadership roles. Our sisters also understand that after these four years of fun, we will be entering the professional world and DG wants to make sure that we are prepared to take on that responsibility.

8. We encourage each other to get involved.

Our sisters are involved in a ton of clubs, student government, athletics, honors organizations, etc. So, you can feel confident joining a club that interests you on campus because you know you will get to participate in it with your sisters.

9. We have a fully stocked snack cabinet.

I know this is the second time I have mentioned food but the snack cabinet plays an important role in my life.

10. DG is my home away from home.

The beautiful DG house is more than just a place to connect with our sisters, study, sleep and watch Grey's Anatomy. The DG house stands as a reminder that we represent something bigger than ourselves. With over 230,000 members nationwide I know that no matter where I end up I will always be close to home.
