Day in the Life of Delta Gee: Walking into the huge house of 105 N. Jordan, all you can hear is a buzz of happy laughing voices. Everywhere you look girls are studying everything from Pre Law to Foreign Language, chowing down on cheesy bread, and watching Law and Order SVU episodes on the first floor. Upstairs girls gossip about their long days and share their deepest secrets. This house that holds 115 ladies has become a place of family and security for all Delta Gammas.
