21 Things Every Delta Gamma Will Understand

CSULB Delta Gamma

1. Anchor Everything

Do I need another anchor addition? No. But am I going to get it? Duh.

2. You’ve mΔsteΓed finding words with an A and R

pΔΓadise, dΔmn pΓoud, ΔnchoΓ, heΔΓt, the list goes on and on...

3. Your favorite colors will always be bronze, pink and blue

When you’re decorating your room and you realize the color scheme is bronze, pink, and blue…

4. You most likely have a picture with your sisters captioned “They keep me anchored”

It’s the most basic of Delta Gamma captions, but you wouldn’t be a DG if you didn’t have it somewhere on social media.

5. George Banta will forever be your mcm

How could you not be obsessed with him?

6. There may or may not be an anchor in your Twitter/Insta bio

We all know we added that anchor the second after we received our bids.

7. All your sisters inspire you to Do Good

Our sisters are truly amazing women that inspire us to be the best version of ourselves possible.

8. Left hand always

There’s no other way to salute.

9. Your family and friends outside of DG buy you anchor stuff

I can’t even begin to tell you how many texts I’ve gotten that read, “This reminded me of you” and of course, it’s something with an anchor on it.

10. Literally always prepared for anything nautical themed

And the anchor obsession continues.

11. Anchormen are life

They love DG as much as us and support us 24/7! What’s not to love?

12. Nothing gets you pumped like Service for Sight

Nothing.

13. DG reminds you to always have hope

It represents who we are.

14. You probably have a sailor hat somewhere in your closet

I have 3 and I’m honestly not sure why?

15. Half of your wardrobe has an anchor or Delta Gamma (or both) on it

I wear my DG shirts so often I've started to wonder what I wore before I was in a sorority.

16. You look forward to getting Anchora every month

I don’t know how I started getting them, but I’m not complaining.

17. Throw what you know, wherever you go

The salute isn’t a trend, it’s a way of life.

18. Slight obsession with the Delta Gamma Shirt Swap Page

There are some really great deals on there!

19. Spring semester is your favorite because of Anchor Splash

The weird tan lines are worth it because it’s everyone’s favorite event of the year.

20. Cream colored roses have a special place in your heart

They’re just so perfect!

21. You thank your lucky stars that Anna, Eva, and Mary were at the Lewis School for Girls back in 1873

Sorry you couldn’t go home for Christmas, but thank you for giving me my home away from home.

Things People Without A Typical 'Boy Name' or 'Girl Name' Know To Be True

All names should be "unisex names."

Tulane University

688

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

Washington College

CSU

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

14 Things The Extremely Pale Are Tired Of Hearing

I get it... I'm pale.

University of Vermont

2362

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
