Pageantry with a Purpose

By: Jordan Wales


         In an event that causes Aerosmith’s “Dude Looks Like a Lady” to play in your head, Alpha Gamma Delta held its annual He’s A Lady pageant last night.

       But this year the event was so popular that the crowd tested the limits of LeBaron Hall. People began filling the seats and packing the place out until there was standing room only at the back and every stair had at least three people squished together. The fans were as varied as the contestants which ranged from fraternity men to teammates on the university baseball and soccer teams.

       This year, Alpha Gam changed the scoring procedure from written votes cast by the audience to a panel of judges. 
         At the end of the night Kevin Britt took home the grand prize while representing the women of Alpha Delta Pi. Britt had just recently accepted the very first bid offered to become a Founding Father of the new Phi Gamma Delta or “Fiji”. This marks He’s a Lady as one of the first indirect victories for the colony.  
        He's a Lady is the spring philanthropy event for Alpha Gam and all proceeds go to support the Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation which helps the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation.
