According to Delta Zeta president Kim Boyle, the Cup is important because of the competition it provides between chapters.
"We're all competing, and the best part of it, really, is that it pushes us, individually as chapters, to be our best," Boyle said.
For Delta Zeta, striving for the Cup is something that "comes naturally" with the sorority's original purpose, Boyle said.
"We try to make sure that during each term during the year, we're fulfilling all the different categories and [making sure] that they go hand-in-hand naturally with what we already do," Boyle said.
Boyle added that one of Delta Zeta's main strengths was the level to which the sisters committed themselves to events.
"As a sisterhood, we have a lot of tight bonds, so when we do an event, it's not that four or five girls come out, but we get a large number of girls attending the events," Boyle said. "I think it shows that it's not that we're doing the event for the sake of doing it, but that we're doing it because we really want to."
Ruth added that the Greek community has contributed a great deal to the campus community in the past year.
"The amount of campus involvement they bring to Drexel is unbelievable," Ruth said.
Peoples wrote in an e-mail that the Greek community has "achieved amazing results in the past year."
Lisa Ciechanowski, Panhellenic Council president, added her support of the Dean's Cup award.
"It helps a lot in that it shows the truly great things we do, the amount of community service hours that we've done, the funds we raise for philanthropies, and it shows that we have a lot of non-alcoholic Greek hours," Ciechanowski said.
Josh Murphy, IFC president, added that the competition and standards that the Cup requires for all the chapters help to dispel the stereotypes of typical fraternities and sororities.
"You get that typical mentality of frats, or 'animal house,' and that's not the case at Drexel. We bring a lot more to the community," Murphy said.
