History:
           Founded May 15, 1851 at
Wesleyan Female College in
Macon, Georgia, Alpha Delta Pi holds the distinction of being the first secret society for women and the mother of today’s sorority system. We were founded on the principles of scholarship, leadership, service to others and sisterhood. These principles still guide the policies and programs of the sorority today.
          
           To date, Alpha Delta Pi has initiated more than 182,500 women, many of whom are actively involved in one of our over 130 collegiate chapters or 150 alumnae associations throughout the United States and
Canada. 

           Here at Wagner, we strive to achieve these goals that our founders established.  We participate in many philanthropy events including raising money for the Ronald McDonald House and participating in both the Breast Cancer Walk and the Light the Night Walk for Leukemia and Lymphoma.  We strive for high academic standards and have many young women that not only participate in many clubs and organizations but are involved in National Academic Honor Societies as Well as the National Leadership Honor Society Omicron Delta Kappa.  We were founded on faith and loyalty and continue to spread the traditions of Alpha Delta Pi.  FirstFinestForever.

Creed:

 


            I believe in Alpha Delta Pi.  I believe that my sorority is more than just a ritual or symbol that it is a way of life.  I believe that the principles established by our founders in 1851 are enduring attributes exemplifying the highest ideals of Christian Womanhood. I believe that our motto “We Live For Each Other”, express the true spirit of fraternity; and that by living this motto my life will be enriched by true friendships and unselfish service to mankind.  I believe that privilege of membership in Alpha Delta Pi brings the responsibility to do my best in whatever I undertake; always remembering that leadership requires confidence tempered with humility and courage blended with tolerance.  I believe that I must strive to become a well-balanced person by following the dictates of the four points symbolized by our diamond-shaped badge; first strengthening my own character and personality; second, watching my attitude towards my fellow beings; third, recognizing the value of high educational standards; and fourth, developing faith and loyalty.  I believe that these four guide-posts guarded by the stars and friendly hands clasped in Adelphean bonds of fellowship, will lead me to achieve a rich and useful life.
