Happy 107th Anniversary to Alpha Gamma Delta!

On this date in 1904 at Syracuse University in New York, Alpha Gamma Delta was founded. The organization is an international women's fraternity founded by 11 progressive women. Since its founding, collegiate chapters have been installed at 185 colleges and universities across North America and more than 155,000 women have become Alpha Gam sisters. Alpha Gamma Delta is a member of the Syracuse Triad.

The intent behind Alpha Gamma Delta's founding differed from other groups because it was founded to become a National Women's Fraternity rather than a local group or literary society. Alpha Gamma Delta's colors are red, buff, and green, the organization's mascot is the squirrel, and its vision is to "Inspire the Woman. Impact the World."  

Happy 107th Anniversary to all members of Alpha Gamma Delta!
