She was not a founder, but Soror Lillian P. Benbow lit the spark that made me KNOW that I would be a Delta. If you ever heard her speak, you'd never forget her, especially since she had a commanding voice and one of the BAAADEST Afros I'd ever seen. She visited Fisk my freshman year and I was HOOKED....

I agree with you about Lillian Benbow. As a 1 month old neo, still in college, I was invited to visit with her in HER ROOM at a regional conference. She wanted to hear about my experience as a pledge because she was going to crack down on hazing. From that point on, every time I saw her at a convention or conference she always stopped to acknowledge me by name. She was definitely the second biggest Delta influence (after my mother of course) in my life.
