My name is CATHERINE VANDERgriff, and I have the absolute honor of serving as the President of the Beta Pi chapter of Kappa Delta at the University of Florida. On behalf of our 300+ sisters, I am so excited to welcome you as you begin this journey of finding your home away from home.
Looking back on my time at UF, I’ve realized that joining Kappa Delta was the moment my college experience truly began. I was immediately surrounded by a group of women who have become my mentors, my biggest supporters, and my very best friends. This sisterhood has shaped me into the leader and individual I am today, providing a space where I felt encouraged to grow and confident enough to lead.
What makes Beta Pi so special is the unique heart of every member. Our sisters are leaders all across the UF campus—from Student Government and Florida Blue Key to Dance Marathon. Beyond campus, we are deeply committed to serving our Gainesville community through our work with the Child Advocacy Center and our local Girl Scout troops. Whether we are raising money for Prevent Child Abuse America through our annual golf tournament or mentoring young girls, we strive to leave a positive impact on everything we interact with.
More than the accolades, I am endlessly thankful for the quiet moments: the late-night study sessions, the constant laughter in the house, and the unwavering support of a sisterhood that truly cares. This chapter has given me more than I could ever repay, and my goal as President is to ensure every member feels that same sense of belonging and empowerment.
We are so glad you’re here, and we can’t wait to share a glimpse of what our sisterhood means to us. We hope you find a place that inspires you just as much as Kappa Delta has inspired us!
Go Gators!
