About
Gamma Psi was founded on May 2, 1953 at Central Michigan University in Mount Pleasant, MI. We've been around 68 years and going strong!
Our chapter is a part of Delta Zeta Region 9. We currently have a total of 44 members in our chapter
Chapter History
Delta Zeta Sorority was founded at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, in 1902. It was the first sorority to be founded at the university.
The Founders then went on to lay the foundation for the Sorority which would have a national reach. Today, Delta Zeta has enriched the lives of over 260,000 alumnae and collegiate members in the United States and Canada.
Our Philanthropy
Delta Zeta supports Speech and Hearing as their National Philanthropy. They partner with the American Society for Deaf Children and the Starkey Hearing Foundation to raise awareness about Speech and Hearing education.
Delta Zeta also supports their global service project, SeriousFun Children's Network as well as their local philanthropy of the CMU Hearing Clinic located on campus.
Every spring, Delta Zeta puts on a week long event called Turtle Week to raise money for these organizations. This past year, we raised over $4,000 in support of speech and hearing!
Activities
Delta Zetas are involved in all aspects of student life here at Central Michigan University whether that be in another RSO or sport team!
As sisters, we value friendship, curiosity, generosity, empowerment, citizenship, and belonging. We practice these values in a multitude of ways and here is just a little of what we do!
