Tribute to the Gradamacated!

Beth Storie's (2013) take on graduation :D

HI!!!!!

This past weekend ( i know it closer to this coming weekend, leave me alone) our lovely seniors gradamacated! And we got seniormacated... or thats what I like to call it. They all looked great showing off in their black robes with their red Alpha Gamma Delta stoles. SO PROUD of you all I know each and every one of you are off to do great big things in  this world. We just hope you show up occasionally to brag about it so then we can brag about you! The ceremony was long but only because we couldn't wait to see each sister walk across that stage to get their diploma for their various degrees. Each and every one of them smiling, and most likely getting their picture taken by me standing creepily on the side just before they walked up to get that important peice of paper that says "I'm capable of holding a job see someone gave me a degree!" However I'm sure you all deserved it!

We're going to miss you all terribly and we love you. You've helped all of us grow. We've learned to trust better, have fun, be studious, and enjoy life all at the same time. You've helped us understand the true meaning of friendship and sisterhood, that sometimes it take a little more than hardwork and determination and that a little bit of laughing and crying does the soul some good. Through you we have learned that sisterhood is more than a phrase used to describe a group of amazing women, its an unexplainable bond through which you share with many amazing women. You've been there for all of us and we will always be here for you! Whether you need a break from the stressful real world, want to relive your college days, or just visit cause you love and miss us (you know its true!), we will always be here for you!

We love you gradamacated seniors!

Emily Anness' welcome back!!!!

Welcome back, ladies!

I hope everyone enjoyed a crisp fall break and safely returned to WPI revitalized and smiling. I know for sure that all of you will conquer The B-Term. For those who are away, I’m very happy that you arrived safe and sound. Soak in the culture and have a blast! Be curious and open, and keep your chin up – even the overwhelming aspects of projects and traveling are valuable experiences. 

Before winter hits Worcester, rake yourself a pile of leaves and jump in it. Have you seen how bright the leaves are this year? Holy canolli, Batman. Hurricane Sandy will swing by next week, leaving us snow and hail. You know what? Whatevah. When Worcester gives you raw weather, make hot cocoa and chill with your sisters instead. And, we have the holidays to look forward to- who doesn’t have love Alpha Gam Thanksgiving? Or our ugly sweater party?

A huge thank you goes out to Louisa King, who steadfastly guided us through a successful Polish Week. We left Higgins House buffed with confidence and pep for Formal Recruitment. I know this week was rough, but stay in good spirits. We will soon be getting to know wonderful young women, and they will get to know us as well.

Congratulations to our three new initiates, Jessie Sacks, Robyn Lindsay and Danielle LaRose. I’m psyched to have you as new sisters! I know you will do great as Alpha Gams.

Not that you guys need it, but best of luck in B-Term. Be confident, be good, and have fun!
