Meet West Chester University's 10 Panhellenic Sorority Chapters
WCU Panhellenic

As a sorority girl going through recruitment my freshman year, I couldn't keep everything straight. From everyones sign, philanthropy, or even how to say/read the sororities' names. It was all so new to me and I wanted to remember which was which so I could pick the best choice for me. So if you’re anything like me, and go to DubC, my hope is that this will help you remember each organization a little better if you do decide to choose Greek Life.

Rumor has it Delta Gamma is also going to try and colonize this year too! So if you wanted to start fresh and want make your own representation out of a sorority this is the best way to do so. All the stereotypes of other sororities can get in the ay of our judgment, especially if this isn’t your first year at West Chester. It also looks great on a resume and is really cool known that you colonized and are a founding sister. So keep Delta Gamma in mind as well!

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.

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.

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.
