20 Reasons I Love Gamma Phi Beta

1. The Sisterhood

Gamma Phi has taught me what it is like to have sisters. I know everyone says they love their sisterhood, but I now know why.

2. Philanthropy

Building Strong Girls... As a woman it is hard to be strong and confident, but it feels so great to teach young girls how to be confident. I learn so much more from those girls than they will learn from me.

3. Social/Mixer/Formal

I do not pay for my friends, I pay for my queso and chicken tenders at a Mixer.

4. Networking

No matter where you go, there is always a sister near by.

5. T-shirts GALORE

I live in t-shirts. Joining Gamma Phi was a dream when I realized how many t-shirts came along with it.

6. Ritual

It is so sacred and moving. Women who are new sisters to women who are 95 can talk of the same experience they had, but only sisters will ever know.

7. Academic Accountability

Shoutout to our scholarship chairwoman for making sure I log my study hours!!

8. Campus Involvement

Coming to a new school is tough, but your sisters will always help you feel welcomed!

9. SONGS

I love singing... from the songs we sing to the chants we scream, Gamma Phi has a good time.

10. International

Thinking of moving to Canada? You will still have sisters nearby!

11.My Pledge Class

I love my pledge class, they have been with me through recruitment to bid day to big/little to so much more!!

12. My B I G

She is the definition of a TRUE AND CONSTANT friend!!! When I locked my keys in my car and had to wait two hours for the locksmith she met me, took me to coffee, and went shopping to take my mind off things.

13.Constant Support

No matter what a sister is struggling with, we do not mind taking time out of our day to help them, pray for them, or think about them.

14. Inspired Me to the Highest Type of Womanhood

Every day I aspire to be the best I can, especially with the letters on the back of my car (no more road rage).

15. Always Under the Crescent Moon

There is always a sister there to look after you, support you, welcome you to a new community, whatever you need!

16. Same Letters, but Many Paths

We are not all the stereotypical blonde hair blue eyed, and it is so beautiful!! Although we are a sorority, we are still diverse in many aspects.

17. They Have My Back

I found out who my friends were.

18. Alumni

They know so much about Gamma Phi and want you to know it all too.

19. I Found Home

I ran home to Gamma Phi, and I will never turn back.

20. It’s Not for Years It’s for Life

New Member? Alumni? No Matter. Still a SISTER.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
