Letter from the President

Letter from the President

Hey y’all!

My name is Sarah Cherry, and I have the privilege of serving as Delta Gamma’s 2021 chapter president at LSU. I grew up in Reno, Nevada, but decided to attend LSU for the rich culture and amazing school spirit that Baton Rouge has to offer. I am a rising senior studying Biological Sciences with minors in Psychology and Business Administration. I am so honored and humbled to be leading such phenomenal women who strive for excellence in scholarship, leadership, and friendship.

VP: Social Standards

I chose Delta Gamma because it was where I felt the most comfortable and where I could be myself. My grandbig was the first person who spoke to me during recruitment and from that moment on I knew DG was home. I felt so heard and understood by everyone, and that feeling has not changed after 3 years of being involved in the chapter. Everyone that I interact with in the house, on campus, or even on social media is always so loving and encouraging, reminding me why I went DG!

What's your major?

Biology Pre-Dental with a minor in Psychology !

If you could live anywhere, where would it be and why?

I would live in the mountains! I love to ski and the sunsets are beautiful!  

What is your dream job?

What's your favorite part about your position?

I love honor board! It gives me the chance to connect with all the members and give back to the chapter in so many ways!

Best piece of advice for a PM going through recruitment?

My advice would be to go in with an open mind and a strong sense of who you are! Let the process happen naturally and don’t get caught up in the show and outfits! It is just a conversation getting to know someone so be intentional and be yourself, you will end up at your home! 

If you could pick one word to describe your Delta Gamma sisters, what would it be and why?

LOVING! The women in DG know how to love others so well in many different ways! My friends are so intentional and make me feel so loved all of the time!

I love DG because I genuinely feel loved by my sisters. Throughout the past couple years I have created some of the most incredible friendships, and I know when I need something they will always be there for me.

What's your favorite part about your position?

My favorite part of being vp: programming is that I get to interact with all parts of our chapter and work with my directors to put on sisterhood events that everyone will enjoy! I love being able to work to enhance the sisterhood aspect of our chapter. 

Best piece of advice for a PM going through recruitment?

Go in with an open mind. I was a legacy to a different house when going through recruitment. This really narrowed my point of view and did not allow me to enjoy the full experience. Trust the process and know that everything works out exactly how it’s supposed to! 

If you could pick one word to describe your Delta Gamma sisters, what would it be?

Family. Going to college was my first time being away from home, and my sisters give me a home away from home. They make me feel loved and like I can be completely myself.

Sam Shirmer

Meet Sam!

VP : Member Education

I chose DG because, during recruitment, I left every party at DG feeling confident in myself and what I had to offer to this sisterhood. Going into recruitment being out-of-state, I was incredibly intimidated and did not know an ounce of information about sorority recruitment. Compared to other houses, DG made my experience feel less like recruitment and more like catching up with friends I’ve known for years. I continue to love DG more and more every day because of the unconditional love and assistance I receive from my sisters.

What's your major?

Biology major, Pre-medicine

If you could live anywhere, where would it be and why?

I would live on Maui because I love warm weather and the peaceful environment of the island and their people.

What is your dream job?

My dream job is a pediatric orthopedic or oncologist.

What's your favorite television show/series?

My favorite TV show/ series is Game of Thrones or From Scratch

Favorite restaurant in Baton Rouge?

Elsie's plate & pie!!

What's your favorite DG event?

 PYD or Cheesies with the Deegees

What's your favorite part about your position?

My favorite part of my position is being able to maintain the unique traditions of our sisterhood and being a part of the new member process to welcome our new members into what I consider my home away from home. 

Best piece of advice for a PM going through recruitment?

My best advice is to stay as open-minded as you can be, do not let people sway your decision, and choose the house that you know will push you to be the best version of yourself. 

If you could pick one word to describe your Delta Gamma sisters, what would it be and why?

Steadfast - My delta gamma sisters have been there to hold me up when I was at my weakest and have pushed me when I thought I couldn't achieve my goals. My sisters create a safe space for me to be my true self and have never made me feel out of place .I never feel alone when I am with my sisters and I know that our unwavering bond will last a lifetime.

VP: Foundation

Going into recruitment, I knew I was looking for a group of women who loved to serve their community and each other side by side. I wanted a place that would allow me to grow and push me to be the best version of myself. Delta Gamma went above and beyond these expectations. I met women who inspire me to be better to this day, and even after only talking to them for a short time during recruitment, I knew that I could always count on them to be by my side.Going into recruitment, I knew I was looking for a group of women who loved to serve their community and each other side by side.

What's your favorite part about your position?

My favorite part about foundation is watching our philanthropy, Service For Sight, bring out the best in those around me! It is so inspiring to watch my closest friends do good, and I am so grateful for the opportunity to witness the amazing women of Delta Gamma serve our community and each other!

Best piece of advice for a PM going through recruitment?

The transition into college can be difficult, and recruitment can be a challenging time for a lot of girls! My best piece of advice for a PNM is to think about who you want to be in four years, and pick the house where the girls you meet embody those qualities! The women I met during recruitment inspire me to this day, and I am so grateful for Delta Gamma for giving me a group of women who support me each and every day!

If you could pick one word to describe your Delta Gamma sisters, what would it be and why?

In one word, I would describe my DG sisters as compassionate. Our Do Good motto extends beyond our philanthropy and into our daily lives. The women I have met in DG are truly selfless and never hesitate to put others first!
