Have confidence in your answer, AchtungBaby! You're absolutely right.
From one of our DZ chapter websites:
In the fall of 1903, Julia Bishop was the only founder of Delta Zeta who returned to Miami University. She made friends easily and was admired by everyone on campus. The spirit that is Delta Zeta came from her. She was an idealist as well as scholastically inclined. Rush in 1903 consisted mainly of long buggy rides around Oxford in a horse and buggy driven by Julia. Being the Treasurer, she paid bills from her own pocket.
Julia Bishop was the Founder who was in active service longer and later in life than any of the other six. Thus more Delta Zetas were priviledged to know her, and through her to feel themselves acquainted with the entire group of Founders.
