VIEWP INT Every two years, sisters from across the continent gather for International Convention, excited to rekindle existing friendships and create new ones. For those who attended Convention, I hope that the Convention feature on the following pages helps you recall the sisterhood shared, memories made and skills learned while in San Antonio. For those who were unable to attend, hopefully you will get a glimpse into the fun-filled and educational event that our sisters hold deep in their hearts. From the first-ever Convention Philanthropy Walk to the evening at Knibbe Ranch, our sisters have much to remember from Convention. The Archives Committee provided Convention attendees with five videos from the Fraternity’s historical collection that covered topics like the early days of the Fraternity, the growth of Alpha Gamma Delta, International Convention, philanthropy and the Quarterly. Attendees were pleased with the informative and entertaining videos, and I am proud to say that these videos are now available for purchase at www.alphagammadelta.org. A variety of workshops were also provided for attendees, with topics ranging from philanthropy and social networking to Omega Financial and release figure methodology. International Convention was definitely a fun time, but much progress was also made for our Fraternity. Hopefully, Convention left you with a renewed sense of our Purpose and what it means to be a sister of Alpha Gamma Delta. 46
Each individual sister and local chapter is a part of the whole, and together we can unite to make an impact in our communities and the world at large. So I am asking you, as a sister of Alpha Gamma Delta, to work with your local chapter or club to commit to small achievements. We can work together to increase recruitment numbers, retain current members, create more fund raising opportunities and increase visibility on campus and in our local communities. You may be asking yourself how to achieve the small tasks that I ask of you. By sending in a Recruitment Information Form (RIF), providing financial support to collegiate chapters to help with recruitment and providing volunteer support for community service projects, you can make a significant impact on our collegiate chapters. I am confident that if each sister commits to these tasks, Alpha Gamma Delta will truly live up to its vision: Inspire the Woman. Impact the World. Another significant way to contribute to our sisterhood is to pay your annual Alumnae Dues. Alumnae Dues are an important source of funding for the Fraternity, helping to provide for free subscriptions to the Quarterly, maintenance and development of the Fraternity website, funding for collegiate and alumnae programming, leadership conferences and our treasured International Conventions. Thank you for providing our sisters with this important revenue that will help secure a bright future for Alpha Gamma Delta. Please see pages 38 and 39 for more information and to pay your Alumnae Dues.
I would personally like to welcome each of the 19 sisters of the newly-installed Beta Upsilon Chapter at Roosevelt University into Alpha Gamma Delta sisterhood! Read more about the installation on page 41. Thank you to all of the volunteers and staff members who played a major role in this successful and monumental installation. In addition to replenishing the Fraternity’s resources, it is important to focus on renewing our bodies and our minds. I encourage you to join our sisters in participating in the Walk to 2010 Challenge. Check out the back page of this magazine to learn more about this new initiative that will help us to defeat diabetes one step at a time. Sign up today! International Convention provided our sisterhood with momentum to make a difference in our communities. From local philanthropy events to achieving the highest grade point average on campus, I am proud of our members for their successes. I am excited about our future and hope sisters will continue to join in the efforts to make our world a better place.

Texans often remark that everything is bigger in Texas. Indeed, the state boasts a ranch as big as Rhode Island, a state capitol building second only in size to the nation’s Capitol and a land mass that ranks as the largest of the country’s contiguous states. There is truth to the typical Texan bravado. It is only appropriate, then, that Alpha Gamma Delta’s first Convention foray back to the Lone Star State in nearly 20 years be celebrated with appropriate gusto. For four hot summer days, San Antonio was flooded with more than 660 sisters prepared to remember, rejoice and rededicate themselves to Alpha Gamma Delta at the Fraternity’s 45th International Convention. There was a little bit of everything—formal banquets and armadillo racing. Stuffed squirrels for sale from vendors and live long horn cattle. Structured workshops to exercise the mind and a five-kilometer philanthropy walk to exercise the body. Each event and activity served to connect attendees to Alpha Gamma Delta and to their sisters, and all were celebrated in true Texan style. Above all, our unity in action—unity that makes possible our friendships, our traditions, our strength and our sisterhood—was boldly personified in each and every Alpha Gam sister. 2
Unity in Action
Convention 2008 officially began on June 19 with the Opening Banquet and the Flag Parade, a tradition that began at the Fraternity’s Centennial Celebration at Convention 2004 in Chicago. The parade boasted a new participant for 2008, Beta Upsilon Chapter, following the chapter’s recent installation at Roosevelt University. All 182 installed chapters were represented, with sisters proudly displaying their school spirit. The biennial report, distributed at each Convention, was complemented this year by a video component that allowed each International Council member to address the progress made in her specific focus area. Shown during the Opening Banquet, the video not only informed attendees of the Fraternity’s development over the past two years, but also served as proof of Alpha Gamma Delta’s ongoing commitment to the use of technology and multimedia. In addition to the creation of the biennial report video, 17 other videos were also created for viewing at Convention 2008. Of these 17 videos, five represented an innovative approach to the Fraternity’s history taken on by the Archives Committee. Covering a wide array of Fraternity topics, from the early days of the Fraternity to the history of Alpha Gamma Delta’s philanthropic efforts, these videos were shown periodically throughout Convention to a captive audience of Alpha Gams, eager to learn more about their Fraternity. The first of these videos, which chronicled the history of the Fraternity’s Conventions, debuted at the Opening Banquet and served as an appropriate reminder of why Alpha Gams have continued to gather every two years for International Convention. International President Jackie Brannon Stutts mirrored these sentiments in her opening remarks, as she urged attendees to consider the “three Rs” throughout the following days: “First, rejoice. Rejoice in the moment. There are so many wonderful things to celebrate at this Convention. Take time to appreciate the importance of each experience and each encounter with your Alpha Gam sisters.
Second, rededicate. Rededicate yourself to the Fraternity. We can relish in the pride of our successes, but there is still much to accomplish. We must not rest on our laurels. We must continue to move forward. Third, remember. Remember the faithfulness of the past. Let’s not forget our history. As we consider the progress made over the past two years and the progress that we will most surely make over the next few days, we must not forget to consider the progress that Alpha Gamma Delta has made over the past 104 years.”
Celebrating Tradition
Ever since the first official gathering in 1907, the Fraternity’s Conventions have boasted a strong commitment to traditions, both old and new. By engaging in our time-honored customs, we are imparted with a sense of unity and sisterhood that connects us with all sisters, even those who came more than a century before. The evening of Friday, June 20 gave sisters an opportunity to reconnect with the roots of Alpha Gamma Delta—the Ritual. The Initiation Service, during which five women were brought into the Fraternity as hundreds of sisters looked on in appreciation, was held prior to the Honors of Epsilon Pi Banquet and the Memorial and Honors of Epsilon Pi services. The Honors of Epsilon Pi recognize the work of alumnae members who have provided extraordinary assistance to the Fraternity through faithful, outstanding and continuing service. Kay Taylor Donahue, Upsilon–University of Oklahoma, served as Toastmistress for the banquet, and to the excitement of many attendees, 230 sisters were named as recipients of an Honor of Epsilon Pi. The distinction of serving as Toastmistress for the banquet was not the only highlight of Kay’s evening, however, as it was revealed during the Honors of Epsilon Pi service that she was the recipient of the Circle of

programming, improvement and overall excellence. For a listing of collegiate and alumnae awards recipients, please refer to pages six and seven.
Epsilon Pi, the Fraternity’s highest honor. Having devoted years of dedication and service, Kay is just the 22nd wearer of the Circle in the Fraternity’s history. The final night of Convention on Sunday, June 22 saw sisters gathered together for the Feast of Roses, a tradition that made its debut at Convention 1915. Jennifer Smentek Mores, Gamma Alpha–University of Georgia, acted as Toastmistress for this elegant evening, and sisters offered eloquent toasts to our alma maters, our Founders, our alumnae, our collegians, our initiates and our Fraternity. Following the toasts, International Vice President–Extension Sheila Kelley Sola called the Chapter Roll, and the room became awash with the glow of candlelight as sisters lit their tapers in honor of their initiating chapters. Immediately following the Feast of Roses, attendees gathered for the Living Circle, led by Deedee Smith Evans, Upsilon–University of Oklahoma and wearer of the Circle of Epsilon Pi. Deedee led sisters in Alpha Gam songs, stopping to add helpful instruction and personal anecdotes about her experiences leading this tradition since its inception in 1968.
Recognizing Excellence
The dedication of the Fraternity’s collegiate and alumnae groups was recognized at separate alumnae and collegiate awards luncheons during Convention 2008. More than 35 awards were presented for achievement in various categories, such as recruitment, scholarship,

Five Alpha Gamma Delta sisters were honored with the Distinguished Citizen Award at Convention 2008. These awards are given to alumnae members of the Fraternity who are outstanding in their professions or in civic, organizational, cultural or charitable work. Recognized as 2008 Distinguished Citizens were Bonita Regan Kirby, Alpha Eta–Dalhousie University; Linda Porter Powell, Alpha Tau–Edinboro University of Pennsylvania; Patricia Mungenast Smith, Gamma Sigma–Troy University; Katherine Spindler, Beta Xi–Purdue University and Cindy Luis Wells, Delta Epsilon–University of California, Los Angeles. For more detailed information about these outstanding Alpha Gamma Delta sisters, see page eight.
Growth of Knowledge and Wisdom
Alumnae and collegiate attendees alike were offered a variety of workshops that allowed members to learn with each other and from each other about topics that impact women at all stages of life. From information and instruction on release figures management methodology for recruitment to helpful advice on how to live healthier lives, the Fraternity’s Education Committee endeavored to create a workshop schedule that was conducive to sisters of all ages. In addition, various roundtable discussions were held, and sisters benefited from the opportunity to share ideas and collectively solve common problems in their specific situations. The Leadership Institute-Women with Purpose provided sisters with a relevant presentation by life coach Christine Hassler with her address on “The Myth of Having it All.” Drawing from personal experience, Christine discussed the complex roles that women face today. Touching on topics like body image, relationships and achieving life balance, Christine’s humorous and honest approach to the relevant topic was well received among sisters. She urged women not to worry about “having it all” and comparing themselves to others. Instead, women should create a path in life that makes them happy. “One of the most important things in achieving balance is not caring about what others think,” noted Christine.
Walking The Walk
The Fraternity’s revitalized philanthropy effort was warmly received when it first debuted at 2007’s Volunteer Leadership Conference. Since then, this effort to “Defeat Diabetes One Step at a Time” has grown tremendously in size, leading to a landmark event at Convention 2008. For the first time in Convention history, hundreds of Alpha Gam feet marched together to take steps toward healthier living through the Convention Philanthropy Walk. Three hundred and thirty-nine sisters answered the call to join as evidence of our commitment to healthy living, and the Fraternity found great support in external partners as well, with 18 organizations and businesses serving as sponsors. The five-kilometer walk wound around some of the city’s most popular attractions, including the Alamodome and the Tower of the Americas at Hemisfair Park, as sisters cheered and sang along the way, providing both encouragement and entertainment. In addition to participating in the walk, attendees were asked to collect funds to benefit two worthy recipients—the Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation and the American Diabetes Association. Our sisters continued to step up to the challenge, as more than $24,000 was raised for efforts to defeat diabetes. The support and enthusiasm shown for this inaugural event has ensured its presence as a new Convention tradition. At Convention 2010, attendees will arrive even more prepared for the Convention Philanthropy Walk after completing the Walk to 2010 Challenge, an initiative that debuted following the success of the Convention Philanthropy Walk. To get involved in this exciting new program, see the back cover of this issue of the Quarterly.
Texas Style Sisterhood
Alpha Gams found themselves immersed in the Texas experience at an evening outing to Knibbe Ranch presented by the Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation. From the expected—hay rides and line dancing, to the unexpected—armadillo racing and photos atop a long-horn steer named Oreo, Alpha Gams embraced the opportunity to kick up their heels and let loose at this entertaining off-site event.
Decked out in western wear, members young and old connected with each other despite age or experience as a true testament to our shared sisterhood. Several sisters were awarded for their commitment to the Texas theme, winning contests for best cowgirl boots, best cowgirl hat and best overall cowgirl.
Looking to the Future
Eventually, as it always inevitably does, time began to grow short for our 45th International Convention gathering. Rather than dwell on the thought of bidding goodbye to friends and sisters, however, attendees looked toward the future of the Fraternity. The Fraternity’s International Council for the 2008–2010 biennium was installed at the final General Session, bringing together yet another group of talented, dedicated sisters to guide our Fraternity in the coming years. To learn more about the newly-installed International Council officers, please see page ten. Following installation, International President Jackie Brannon Stutts addressed the membership, outlining plans for the Fraternity and expressing the extra significance of this installation service. Following Jackie’s graduation from college, LaVerne Taylor Flanagan, then Grand President, had implored her to continue her Alpha Gam involvement. Years later, at Convention 2008, it was LaVerne who would install Jackie in her second term as International President. Relating this story to the future of Alpha Gamma Delta, Jackie urged all sisters to take an active role in shaping what our Fraternity is to become. “The sisters who came before us have done their part. It’s our turn now. We must put pen to paper, inspiration to heart and unity in action. Together, we can build Alpha Gamma Delta to even greater heights than we ever could have imagined,” she stated. “We can paint its story with tales of loyalty, of tradition, of sisterhood, of honor. Our chapter is unwritten. Where our story goes is up to us.”
Just can’t get enough Convention? Join us June 23-26, 2010 for our 46th International Convention in Tampa, Florida!

She served as First Alternate Delegate to the National Panhellenic Conference from 2000 to 2004 and Second Alternate Delegate from 1995 to 2000.

Formal Recruitment in September was just as successful as we could have hoped, and we’ve welcomed 12 wonderful young women into our circle of sisterhood. Scholarship has become one of our main focuses, as we consider it a part of our heritage at Tau Chapter, and we’ve spent time strengthening it this year with study groups and exam buddies. At November’s semi formal, we danced the night away. Soon to follow were sister dates, birthday celebrations and our Christmas Dinner and our annual Secret Santa. Philanthropy has been a huge success this year, with our bake sale in the fall raising a record breaking amount of $800 for the Toronto Humane Society. We had a great Trick-or-Eat collection this Halloween, collecting the most non-perishable food items out of any of the student groups. For Christmas we gave back to the community by donat-
Zeta Chi— University of Western Ontario
Zeta Chi Chapter has experienced a very exciting and busy time over the last few months! We welcomed 22 amazing new members while continuing our philanthropic activities, academic commitment, sisterhood events and Greek and community involvement. For our fall 2007 sisterhood retreat we stayed at a sister’s lakeside cottage. The retreat was a wonderful escape and definitely made us closer as a chapter. Apart from bonding as a chapter, we have also made it a goal to strengthen our Greek community on campus. Most recently we also held our annual Chrismukkah sisterhood dinner. The event is a long standing holiday tradition which includes delicious food, sisterhood games, a Chrismukkah performance, gift giving and even holiday caroling. This is definitely one event we hope to continue year after year as it is always a huge success. -Jessika Fink Is your chapter missing?

T
he Fraternity proudly welcomes Beta Upsilon Chapter at Roosevelt University into Alpha Gamma Delta’s circle of sisterhood. Nineteen women were initiated as charter members of the chapter on May 3, 2008. Alpha Gamma Delta achieved a significant milestone at Roosevelt University as the first National Panhellenic Conference (NPC) group on campus.
“
The Installation Banquet was held at Chicago’s prestigious University Club, a few blocks away from the university. Parents of the newly-initiated sisters attended, as well as several Chicago-area alumnae and Alpha Gam volunteers. Helene Martucci Lamarre, Beta Xi–Purdue University, shared greetings from the Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation, presenting the chapter with a digital camera as a chapter gift and garment bags as individual member gifts. The charter was presented by Susan Eberts Prater, as well as other gifts of silver and Ritual items.
“The hard work of the women of Beta Upsilon reminds me of the drive and determination of our Founders in making their dreams a reality,” says Susan The hard work of Eberts Prater, past International Vice President– Extension, installing officer for the chapter. the women of Beta “Beta Upsilon Chapter is definitely an inspiraUpsilon reminds tion to all and has impacted everyone!”

me of the drive and determination of our Founders in making their dreams a reality.
“During the Initiation ceremony, I had tears in my eyes as I watched the 19 women of the colony learn the innermost secrets of our Fraternity,” says Erin Gray, Chapter Advisor for Beta Upsilon. “I made eye contact with one woman and I saw in her eyes the same feeling I had when I was initiated—the wonder of being part of such an amazing organization of women.”
Throughout last semester, the Beta Upsilon Chapter created much visibility on Roosevelt University’s private, liberal-arts campus of just over 3,000 full-time students. The chapter hosted a Jewelry and Scarf Sale, which raised nearly $500 for the Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation. In the future, Beta Upsilon sisters hope to have residence hall space as well as a dedicated chapter room. The women are also looking forward to recruitment this fall, as Roosevelt University is welcoming its largest incoming class in school history.
“I cannot wait to see the Beta Upsilon Chapter continue to break tradition at Roosevelt by exceeding expectations on campus and continually improving as a chapter,” says Erin. 41

Jennifer Powell, left, smiles with Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation Trustee Peggy Kuebler Field at Convention 2008 in San Antonio, Texas.
One last time: Howdy from Texas, y’all! I can’t believe that Convention 2008 is over. We were so thrilled to have all of you come down and join us in San Antonio, and we truly hope that a good time was had by all. For me, it was such a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with my friends and sisters, both those from Texas and those from beyond! As a member (and the fearless leader) of the Houston Alumnae Club, I was thrilled for us to have the chance to help out as much as we could, and we loved having Convention so close to home. More than a dozen of us made an appearance over the course of the week, and it was great to have so many Houston sisters there. On a more personal note, I was thrilled, after being the only Epsilon Rho (Texas A&M University—Gig ‘em Aggies!) at Convention 2006, to have four of my Epsilon Rho sisters there to stand with me at Feast of Roses.
“It was truly refreshing to see people look around with a bit of wonder and new discovery of a place that is so familiar and close to my heart.” When I first heard that Convention 2008 was to be in San Antonio, I admit that I simply thought, “Oh, OK. Well, at least I can drive to this one!” Keep in mind that I have been traveling to San Antonio, and to the River Walk in particular, since I was 15, so I knew it would be a wonderful setting for our Convention. The color and life of the River Walk is difficult to match, and the central location of our Convention hotel was second-to-none. One of the best things for me about Convention, an unanticipated thing, was to watch our non-Texan sisters see Texas and San Antonio through new eyes. Now is probably a good time to admit that I’ve lived in Texas for 30 of my 35 years on this planet, so let’s just say that I’ve seen a lot of it up close and personal. It was truly refreshing to see people look around with a bit of wonder and new discovery of a place that is so familiar and close to my heart. In the interest of candor and cultural exchange, I do think it’s a good idea to clear up a few things about Texans, and now seems like the perfect chance! 1. We do say “y’all.” We say it a lot. We also know that the plural of “y’all” is “all y’all.” 2. Some of us, particularly Aggies, also say “howdy” a lot. 3. For the most part, we will call you “ma’am.” It doesn’t matter how old you are, it doesn’t matter if you are waiting on us or if we are waiting on you. For some of us, it’s simply embedded in our speech. We say it without thinking. Secretly, there are a few of us who believe our moms will know when we don’t say ma’am, find us and fuss at us for our failure to do so.
4. Despite the presence of armadillo races at Knibbe Ranch, I mournfully admit that 90 percent of my experience with armadillos has been seeing them on the side of the road—moved on to the next world. I’m afraid we sometimes call them “walking speed bumps” down here—it’s not intentional, it’s just bad design—the little guys are the same color as the pavement, and on top of that, they tend to move about when it’s dark. The other 10 percent of my armadillo experience is comprised of trying to figure out ways to keep them from digging up the flower beds, as they are wont to do. 5. We tend to forget how fascinating cows and steers, particularly those of the longhorn variety, are to people not used to seeing them. We see them a lot down here. I, for one, declined to be photographed with the longhorn at Knibbe Ranch. I’m an Aggie to the core, and it just didn’t feel quite right. 6. Sadly, we do not all own horses and/or oil wells. 7. If we are talking about someone, and we use the phrase “bless his/her heart,” we probably just insulted that person. “Bless his/her heart” is the Texas equivalent of a verbal “Get Out of Jail Free” card. That covers the high points—just tuck this information in your pocket for the next time you wander our way! Y’all are always welcome, of course, and it’s our pleasure to have you come down. Until then, love, laughter, safe travels and good times to all, and I hope to see you in Tampa at Convention 2010! 45 45
Take the Challenge! Diabetes, our philanthropic focus, is affecting our society at an astounding rate. But together as sisters, we can defeat diabetes one step at a time. Through the Walk to 2010 Challenge, we are doing just that. A charge has been made to each sister to walk 1,000 miles— the distance from International Headquarters to Convention 2010 in Tampa, Florida—before June 2010. Sound intimidating? It might. But if we count each and every walk—every treadmill session, every lap around the mall, every hike in the woods, and maybe even add a few more walks into our lives—we can do it.
The Fraternity will be with you each step of the way to help you succeed in this ambitious goal. An online community has been created at www.walkto2010.org for sisters to share their stories and progress. Those completing the challenge will receive recognition and prizes. All Alpha Gamma Delta sisters in Good Standing may participate, and attendance at Convention 2010 is not required. So get out there—Lace up your shoes, grab a sister and join us as we
defeat diabetes one step at a time!
