The entire staff, the Chapter advisors, and the collegiate leadership team at Delta Mu have constantly adapted to these challenging times and I truly applaud and thank each of them. They have had to handle so many unique challenges, such as abrupt closings, coordinating new move-out and move-in procedures, and ever-evolving guidelines for dining, disinfecting, socializing, quarantining, and isolating. They have done all that while trying to maintain the safety and health of the members and staff and creating a welcoming home for the members. Like so many things this year, recruitment changed dramatically at the university, as it was virtually conducted via Zoom. Despite the challenges presented with such changes, almost 2,250 potential new members and 18 sororities participated in recruitment. Delta Mu is thrilled to welcome an incredible class of 113 new members, over 20% of whom are from the state of Alabama. The new member class also includes more than 20 Presidential Scholars and 35 of our newest Deltas have a GPA above 4.0. While there is still uncertainty regarding many facets of the remainder of the academic year, we should take great comfort in the thought, preparation, dedication, and adaptation that Delta Mu's alumnae and collegiate leaders are exhibiting. Hopefully, in the not too distant future, we can regain some normalcy, but in the meantime, maintaining a safe environment and protecting the health of the members will be at the forefront. To that end, we appreciate your understanding that due to COVID-19, the Tri Delta House is not hosting pregame meals this fall and visitors aren't allowed in at this time. I want to thank the entire Board of Directors for the opportunity to serve as president the last couple of years. So many have been so giving of their time and talents. Simply stated, our alumnae are the best! Leslie Owen Kincaid '77 has taken the reins as president and is already doing a superb job. I so appreciate her dedication to Delta Mu. Lastly, and most importantly, I hope that each of you and your families are safe and healthy.
