Samford's Delta Sigma Theta President, Advisor Honored
The Samford University chapter of Delta Sigma Theta sorority has claimed two honors this summer.
Chapter advisor Denise Gregory (pictured left) was named chapter advisor of the year in Alabama. Dr. Gregory, assistant professor of chemistry and biochemistry, was cited for her leadership in reactivating Samford’s Sigma Eta chapter. The chapter’s charter, first granted in 1995, was dormant for several years before being reactivated in 2010.
Samford chapter president Jenae Steele (pictured below) has been selected to serve as the undergraduate member of the sorority’s Southern regional nominating committee. Steele, a history major from Montgomery, Ala., will represent five states and the Bahamas as the sole undergraduate member of the committee.
In the role, Steele will assist in identifying and nominating future sorority leaders at the regional level, and create a slate to be voted on at next year’s conference. She will also be responsible for insuring a just process that reviews all candidates equitably.
