    Lauren Johnson

    Academic Chair, Spring 2026

     

    My name is Lauren Johnson, and I am so excited to serve as Delta's Community Service and Academic Chair for Spring 2026.

    Since joining Delta, I have consistently witnessed the leadership, compassion, and dedication our sisters bring to serving others. Whether through weekly local initiatives such as clothing donations, national efforts like Be The Match, or supporting our philanthropy, Ronald McDonald House, Delta women are always showing up for their community. Being surrounded by this level of commitment inspired me not only to participate, but to take on a leadership role where I can help strengthen and expand our impact.

    Our philanthropy, Ronald McDonald House, serves families whose children are undergoing medical treatment by providing them with a home away from home.This mission is especially meaningful because it goes beyond fundraising; it allows us to give back in ways where we can actually show up and participate to help the community.

    In this role, I aim to strengthen our chapter’s relationship with Ronald McDonald House while continuing to support other local and national causes that reflect Delta’s values.

    Academic Chair is a role I am equally passionate about, as academics are not only a core priority, but an area where our sisters consistently excel. Delta women care deeply about their education, and many of our members maintain strong GPAs, including earning 4.0s and making the Dean’s List. Being surrounded by such driven, academically focused sisters motivates me to help sustain and support this culture of excellence.

    At the same time, I understand that every sister’s academic journey looks different. Each member faces unique circumstances that may help or hinder her success, and because of this, I believe academics should be approached with both accountability and compassion. Ultimately, my goal is to create an academic environment that is collaborative rather than competitive; where high achievement is recognized, effort and progress are valued, and every sister feels supported in reaching her academic goals.

     

     

     

  • Academics
    Academic achievement is a top priority for members of Delta Kappa Psi. Not only does the Greek community enforce grade point average requirements to join and remain an active member of a sorority or fraternity, but Delta enforces GPA requirements above the community minimum for those seeking to hold leadership positions in Delta. 

     

    Deltas is pleased to have Tracey Sohner (Assistant Director of Academic Success, Student Success Center, Academic Support & Accessibility), as its University Advisor. 

    While chapters are required to maintain a minimum 3.0 grade point average to be considered in good standing, Delta's cumulative GPA for the 2024-25 academic year was 3.36. Women who attained Dean's List status for last semester are listed below.

    Greek students focus on academic achievement and excellence as a community. New members are required to complete 20 hours of study per week during the new members process and must have a minimum 2.5 GPA before they can join a Greek organization.

     

    As an organization, Greeks are held accountable to the Greek Academics Policy where a group faces a loss of privileges if they fall below a cumulative 3.0 GPA.

     

    As an individual, every member in the Greek community must have a 2.5 GPA or they run the risk of losing privileges.

     

    Average GPA of all Delta Members: 3.3
    Average GPA of Delta New Members: 2.8
