They've scrubbed their history of all references, but there are those of us who remember.

In the 2002/2003 UF yearbook, this was Gamma Eta's entry:

Quote:
In Fall of 1995 when the mother, Ilena Camilo had a vision of a unique alliance that would provide the opportunity for Hispanic women at the University of Florida to come together as one with the same ideals, interests and goals. [Emphasis mine]
Source: http://www.e-yearbook.com/yearbooks/.../Page_129.html

There were still references to their Latina roots as of 2005 when Theta Nu Xi first established a chapter on the campus. Since then, however, Gamma Eta has made an intentional effort to be known as "multicultural."
