Thanks for all the pics Tulip86. :)

I love the ones from the '40s and '50s. The women seem truly glamorous back then. I love the 1920 Tri Delta picture in front of the mirror too!

Tulip86, these are GREAT! where did you find them?

While searching for articles for graduate thesis I end up in a lot of university online archives, I usually check to see if there are any pictures, some don't but most have loads of great ones.

I hope this house looked more "pleasant" IRL - it looks like the house that only pagans & Satanists join in bad greek movies!

hre
Granted, I'm no spring chicken, but we had to have all PNMs out by 2am, too. We had one PNM who we really, really wanted, and I had become close to her. One of her assets was that she was an excellent pianist. Every time I even think of rush, I think of many of my sisters pleading with me to please tell her that it's very close to 2am, and she could come back in the morning and play the piano! (and if you ever read my retro thread, you know that we had some pretty wacky rules!)

LOL I thought the girl in the 70s pic was topless too! I was like whatttt?
These are awesome pictures. And I definitely agree that the ladies seem so glamorous in these pictures.

Here's what the chapter's website says about their house:

Quote:

Between 1904 and 1936 the women of Beta rented several homes to be the Delta Gamma house. In 1936 a new home was built for Beta and the women moved in over Easter weekend.
Here is that house, which is the current chapter house:
