The new fraternity was established in 1848 at Miami University in Ohio. Alex Atkinson, a representative of PDT, said Phi Delta Theta Fraternity will give students a new opportunity to stand out and lead with purpose. It allows individuals to take what they learn in the classroom and apply it within a real-life, entrepreneurial experience. With PDT being the twelfth Greek organiza- tion on campus, it’s important for the organiza- tion to differentiate itself from the others. “Phi Delta Theta is a premier fraternal leadership development organization,” Atkinson said. “Phi Delta Theta philanthropy and community ser- COURTESY OF PHI DELTA THETA vice are essential to the Phi Delta Theta experi- Members of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity ence, and one of the many ways Phi Delta sets itself apart from other fraternities and sorori- patients and their families, enables it to challenge themselves to achieve a personal goal ties.

A mentor in every sense of the word, Jodie Hertzog embodies the very nature of adviser; her council was very much appreciated through the course of my study. v ABSTRACT “Girl Power!” is a message that parents raising young women in today’s media- saturated society should be able to turn to with a modicum of relief from the relentlessly harmful messages normally found within popular music. But what happens when we turn a critical eye toward the messages cloaked within this supposedly feminist missive? A close examination of popular music associated with girl empowerment reveals that many of the messages found within these lyrics are frighteningly just as damaging as the misogynistic, violent, and explicitly sexual ones found in the usual fare of top 100 Hits.
