Early Fraternity Life and Career
Christine Vazquez attended the University of South Florida in love with the dance department. After her first year, she decided that she needed to make more friends and get involved in an organization. Her mom received a letter in the mail from Phi Sigma Pi. Christine was very skeptical at first because it was a "fraternity". She decided she would give it a shot anyways. She attended one of the information nights and asked her soon to be Big tons of questions, she was hooked. Everyone there was extremely nice and helpful, so she rushed as a member of the Eta Class (Η)! From then on, a new Christine was born!
Collegiate Years at Epsilon Delta
Christine is extremely active in her chapter. The semester she became a Brother, she immediately was put into a leadership position.

She continued The Epsilon Delta's High School Scholarship including actually showing up to the High School and presenting the check in person.
