Officers' Report
Nancy Noyes (Butts) '60, social
chairman, asked if we would like
favors for the Spring Formal. We
decided to have boutonnieres. She
then asked for nominations for
Sigma Chi Derby Day. The following
women were nominated: Carolyn Hines
(Strayer) '62, Susan Glenn (Latas)
'62, Judy Anderson (Krauklis) '62,
Joy Stephens (Hillard-Donoho) '61,
and Martha Ramsey (Empson) '61. Lee
Ann Bullers moved the nominations
cease. The motion was seconded and
passed. Susie Glenn was elected.
Nancy then talked about table
manners and drinking in public.
Introducing the
Noreen Checchi Dupriest Scholarship
N
oreen Checchi Dupriest '92 pledged Delta Delta Delta in the fall of 1991 after enrolling at
the University of Kansas her junior year. Along with the equally enthusiastic young women
of her class, Noreen sought inclusion in a cause greater than she. The opportunity to create genuine
bonds of sisterhood, make significant differences in the Lawrence community, and celebrate all
that college had to offer forged new directions. The driving force for Noreen's enthusiasm and
love for our sorority derived from the fact that she was not able to start her life in Tri Delta until
her junior year. Her unorthodox path to the life she would come to know as formidable proved
to be the foundation for this scholarship. She savored all the blessings of Delta Delta Delta and
desires to return the steadfast love she has for our beloved sorority.
Every year, Noreen will award a sister in good standing with a minimum GPA of 2.9, and
evidence of financial need, a $1,000 scholarship. An essay explaining what Delta Delta Delta
means to her must be included with the application. The scholarship will be awarded in April at
the Pansy Breakfast.
