We started the evening at the Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity House where we hosted our Annual Mocktail, Delta Zeta's I Have a Choice Event.

The event is an Alcohol Awareness event where fraternities, sororities and other campus organizations, compete for the best tasting non alcoholic beverage, best drink presentation, and spirit.  At the event, Peer Health Educators from the SJSU Health Center came and spoke to all of the participants about alcohol safety.

During a new member semester, Delta Zeta's new members get three pals.  These pals are Turtle Pal, Rose Buddy and Diamond Sis.  Our new members get to write letters back and forth with an initiate for a week and then they have an exciting revealing.

This is a great way for our new members to get to know our initiates and is a great way for them to come around the house!

Vanessa and Jelena

After Rosebuddy revealing, the gentlemen of Theta Chi stopped by to surprise us with a serenade.  It was so much fun to sing songs back and forth.

After we were introduced to all of their pledges, a few of our sisters had paddle and letter exchanges with their big or little bros.

Three of our sisters are dating members of Theta Chi.  It was so sweet and romantic to watch each man, give his lady a beautiful bouquet of flowers.

At the end of the serenade, every brother got down on one knee and together they sang to Nicole S.  She is currently the Theta Chi Dreamgirl.
