VALUES
- LOVE-
"Love is one of the most powerful emotions a human can experience. Love is not determined by how many times you say it, but how much you show it. Love is being kind. Love is being a shoulder to cry on. Love is making someone laugh. Love is friendship. Love is something many of us are always searching for when it is around us is the most simple and extraordinary ways. When we stop looking for love, we see that we are constantly surrounded by love every day as it is something to truly cherish."
- Calli Wiseman // Senior // Communications (Pre-Law) |
-Labor-
"College is a busy and often stressful time in our lives, and the core value of labor helps us to juggle it all. We strive to reach high academic standards and dedicate ourselves to various involvements while often holding a job. Through this value, we can give back to the campus, the community, and philanthropic organizations such as Girls on the Run, and organization that strives to build strong girls by instilling important values such as this one. Our sisters practice the core value of labor daily by bettering ourselves and one another."

-Learning-
"Learning is at the center of Gamma Phi Beta. Our ability to continuously improve and better ourselves academically in the classroom and in our daily lives shines through each sister. Our dedication to learning creates a pathway of growth and development as individuals and as a chapter. This creates lifelong learners in all of us - to continue to learn in all walks of life."
- Joci Rauert // Senior // Elementary Education |
-Loyalty-
"My favorite value is loyalty because it emphasizes that we are committed to this organization for a lifetime. We are loyal to our membership duties, each other, and to our values. Without loyalty, we would not have been able to create an effective sisterhood for over 140 years."
- Emily Eairleywine // Senior // Elementary Education |
