“Gamma Phi has been my ""passion"". It has allowed me to be a leader, as well as a follower. It has challenged me and rewarded me, and always, it has been a learning experience. However, all the positions I have held would have meant nothing without the people - the Gamma Phi sisters with whom I have shared the good times and the bad, the laughter and the tears. I have truly knownlove, labor, learning and loyalty, plus much laughter, because of Gamma Phi Beta and my Gamma Phi sisters, who are my very best friends.And, almost fifty years later, Gamma Phi Beta still makes me feel that ""I"" can always be ""me".
~Karen Wander Kline ’61 former International Gamma Phi Beta President 1978-1982
“My four collegiate years at Gamma Phi Beta were filled with endless memorable moments. I knew my time there was going to impact my life, but I can say that I am who I am today because of the mental and social growth I experienced and the leadership skills I developed through being a Gamma Phi. One of my favorite memories is sleeping at the chapter house during Inspiration Week--we stayed up late talking and laughing, forming the strong friendships I still have today.
~ Dr. Melissa Schroeder 2000
“I can honestly say that Gamma Phi presented numerous opportunities to get involved at ISU and I took full advantage of it. Along with introducing me to a variety of organizations, leadership positions, etc. G-Phi gave me the confidence to pursue involvement. I was fortunate enough to have older members encourage me to apply and simply go for it when I might have otherwise opted to not put myself out there. My pledge class was also a group of “go-getters” who pushed each other to excel. Without Gamma Phi, I would not have been as involved at ISU during my collegiate career and probably would not have been as successful during my college and post-college years."
