On October 18, 1995, Gamma Eta was founded at the University of Florida in Gainesville. It was the first social sorority founded in the state of Florida.
One of the 18 women who founded Gamma Eta is Gloria Forestieri, an Emmy award winner. There’s a wonderful profile of her in the UF College of Journalism and Communications publication.

The other 17 founding mothers are Ilena Camilo, Maria Portilla, Marena Ramirez, Vanessa Ramirez, Maria Torres, Giselle Arvelo, Alexa Davila, Ana Del Valle, Vivian Estalella, Beatriz Lugo, Deborah Mazzeo, Diana O’Hara, Diana Ramirez, Adnybel Rosario-Ortiz, Leemarie Ortiz, Joann Schadenfroh, and Yahdira Torres
And I would be remiss if I did not include a shout out to Chris Medrano Graham who has devoted herself to the field of fraternity and sorority life and who is a dedicated and loyal Gamma Eta.
May today be a day filled with sunflowers!
