One of the chapter's advisors, Wrynn Homann, had this to say about the young ladies: "I am so proud of these girls! The number of philanthropy events they participate in is very impressive! What is even more impressive is that they always give each event 100% and usually win! They are very supportive of other sorority and fraternity philanthropy events, and I find that very inspiring!"
