THE PANSY PATCH SEPTEMBER 2017
THE PANSY PATCH
Big-Little Reveal On September 24th, Delta Omicron celebrated big/little reveal, which joined all the new members with their sorority “families.� The new members dressed in costumes to match their big sisters, who hid in huge decorated boxes all throughout the house. The big sisters showed off their creative skills with many different costume themes with nods to our favorite characters, celebrities, and brands. The excited new members stood in front of their boxes while the big sisters waited patiently inside them, until they all jumped out at once. Screams erupted everywhere as the new members felt even more at home here at Theta. Big/little reveal was the first event during inspiration week leading up to initiation. After big/little reveal, members enjoyed an ice cream sundae bar with their new Theta family.

the Theta Foundation On September 15, the local boutique, Entourage clothing was kind enough to give The Theta Foundation 20% of the sales made on that day. The staff from Entourage came to dinner on that Wednesday leading up to the Philanthropy event to give away gift cards and cups to our members who were interested in attending! Members were able to purchase a cute game-day outfit for a great cause.
Leading woman of the month: Alaina Wilson Our Leading Woman of the Month for September is sophomore Alaina Wilson. Alaina is a psychology major from Naperville, IL and spent her summer interning at Naperville Clinical Services. She currently works in two on-campus research labs, works an off-campus job and is our amazing intramural chair!

For Ava Kate’s 8th birthday, Service Director Rachel Brown and the members of Theta involved in the B+ Foundation organized a night at the spa at the Theta house for our hero. They gave Ava Kate her very own basket full of relaxing spa treatments so she was able to have her very own ‘at home spa’.
