So at the University of Lethbridge we have an area called the
tunnel. It’s literally an underground tunnel between the library and the
Student’s Union building so that students don’t have to go outside on bad
weather days. Inside the tunnel, student clubs and University organizations are
able to apply to the Student’s Union to be able to paint a mural about their
organization in the tunnel. So my sorority, Delta Eta Iota, recently celebrated
our 5
th Anniversary and for the past five years we’ve been trying to
get approval to paint out mural in the Tunnel. The fraternity has a mural and
now that there are two sororities, we wanted to let the student body know about
us. We were FINALLY approved a few weeks ago and we
were able to paint our mural in the tunnel. The background is symbolic of the
Parthenon with five pillars (which represent our five pillars of Leadership,
Mentorship, Friendship, Charity and Academia) and in front is our Crest with
our motto underneath “Everything has its beauty but not everyone sees it” by
Confucius. So we spent all Saturday painting it, it took about 6 hours to paint
but it is beautiful and I am so proud of it!
Over the past few weekends we've also been doing "Positivity Boards" Basically, a girl will sit in front of a white board while all of her sisters write nice comments about her on it. Then we take a picture and she can see what we wrote. Its a nice way to bring up everybody's spirits and make all of our sisters feel loved. Here's mine:
