EPISODE SUMMARY
In honor of Tri Delta History Month and Founders’ Day, we’re taking a meaningful look back at Tri Delta’s history with past Fraternity President Sara “Sash” Vaughn Gabbard, Illinois. Initiated in 1955, Sash has witnessed—and helped shape—decades of Tri Delta sisterhood, leadership and change. In this episode, she shares unforgettable stories, thoughtful perspectives and timeless wisdom for today’s members of all ages.
EPISODE NOTES
In a candid interview with Tri Delta Chief Engagement Officer Elizabeth Howard DiMartino, Boston, Sash reflects on her journey from collegiate member to Fraternity President, offering a window into Tri Delta life in the 1950s and beyond, from June recruitment and curfews to the cultural shift of the late ’60s and early ’70s.
You’re sure to enjoy her candid memories, including the purchase of our first word processor, navigating board work by mail and expensive long-distance phone calls and her belief that leadership often begins by simply saying “yes.”
Sprinkled with humor, history and gratitude, this episode is a true time capsule, a celebration of the past and an inspiration for the future. It’s a reminder that while our world looks very different from how it did in 1955, our Purpose continues to guide us forward.
