Why DTL?
Erika Blas, Spring 2019 Kappa Chapter
“I am the first one in my ENTIRE family to attend college, so I never had someone to rely on or ask for support. When I first met the sisters of DTL, they were all so welcoming and showed they cared about me as a person and not just as someone else that they could recruit. The sisters have also given me the love and support that a blood sister would have given me. I have been able to step out of my comfort zone, build more connections and most importantly grow as a person. I am so thankful for my sorority.”
Veronica Beltran, Fall 2012 Epsilon Chapter
“There are many reasons why I chose DTL. The emphasis on academic excellence, the option to be surrounded by strong and phenomenal women, and the opportunity to grow professionally. Most importantly, I chose DTL because I was always empowered to truly be myself.”
Paula Vinales, Spring 2006 Alpha Chapter
“In 2005, I was an undergraduate woman studying at a large predominantly white institution. It was important for me to create a community on campus that was welcoming, respected my individuality and would pour into me and challenge me to grow as an individual. Over my 14 years of membership in this organization I have learned hard and soft skills that have been transferable in all of my professional roles and I have gained a wonderful sisterhood to support me in my successes and lift me from my failures. DTL has grown me as a professional and has helped me to become unapologetically phenomenal!”
