A Message From Our VP Membership
Dear PNM’s,
My name is Maisy Holch and I was elected to be the 2025 Vice President of membership for the Delta Zeta Kappa chapter at the University of Washington. I am Incredibly grateful to be able to call myself a member of Delta Zeta, and I am proud to be serving on our executive board. Writing to you today, I would like to express how excited I am that you are considering becoming a member of the Greek Community at UW. As an incoming freshman I had no idea whether joining a sorority would be the right decision for me. I was coming from a small town in Rhode Island and knew very little about UW or greek life. However, after my first week at Delta Zeta, I knew I had found my place at this school.
I was immediately met with a group of strong, unique, and supportive young women who helped me to feel at home even though I was thousands of miles from my family. These women became my best friends who I learned from, shared many laughs with, and helped to guide me through my first quarter in college. Delta Zeta stands out to me because there is no right way to be a DZ, we are all different, yet share a love for each other that rises above all else.
To those excited about joining Greek life, we are excited to welcome you into our community, and I hope you find the love and acceptance that I did at Delta Zeta. To those apprehensive about joining a sorority, I understand, It can feel like an overwhelming decision. However, I implore you to take a risk! Seek out the values you cherish, and be true to yourself, because there is room for you in our community. Nationally, Delta Zeta has six values we hold above all else; curiosity, friendship, empowerment, community, citizenship, and belonging, however here at UW’s Kappa Chapter, we like to add diversity as well. We strive to make this chapter a home where everyone feels supported and included no matter their background, and it is a practice that starts in the recruitment process.
So PNM’s, I wish you luck, and I hope you find your place. It’s ok to be scared, but more than anything carry the confidence that you are enough, and that you deserve the support and friendship that I have found at DZ.
With Delta Zeta love,
Maisy Holch
Vice President of Membership
