Delta Gamma offers to women of all ages a rich heritage based on principles of personal integrity, personal responsibility and intellectual honesty. Its primary purpose is to foster high ideals of friendship, promote educational and cultural interests, create a true sense of social responsibility, and develop the finest qualities of character.
Leadership
Delta Gammas are involved leaders in the Montevallo community as participants in College Night, SGA, Scholars in Action, Order of Omega, Montevallo Mavens, and Montevallo Masters, as well as other various honor societies and community groups. Furthermore, the fraternity offers scholarships to members each year to leadership institutes in order to create well-rounded women, and we have a variety of leadership opportunities within the chapter.
Service
We pride ourselves on our philanthropic and service endeavors toward Delta Gamma Service for Sight. Annually, we host Anchor Splash, an annual water olympics and always one of the biggest events on campus. We also have continued relationships with Knowlwood Nursing Home in Calera and Special Equestrians, and we collect box tops year round for the Alabama School for the Blind.
Scholarship
To promote scholarship, Delta Gamma awards merit and need based scholarships for their members each year as well as graduate fellowships. At Montevallo, we continually strive to maintain high standards academically, and we reward our members who go above and beyond their academic duty each semester. We are students first and are devoted to creating intelligent and involved members.
Sisterhood
To create a true and lasting sisterhood, we hold social events each year, such as mixers with other sororities and fraternities, crush parties, and the annual Golden Anchor Ball formal. We also hold sisterhood events and retreats year round to grow in our bonds of sisterhood. We know that sisterhood is for a lifetime, not just at Montevallo but also at the other 146 collegiate chapters and the many alumnae groups of Delta Gamma.
