Although pets are not traditionally allowed in sorority houses, Izzy is one of the chapter's secret bunnies. She enjoys carrots and broccoli. 

Contrary to popular belief, many sorority girls choose to grab a bagel for breakfast over a bowl of Special K. 

Say goodbye to the preconceived image of the cleanly sorority girl. 1A is a four person bedroom on 4604 College Ave. that is anything, but neat and organized.
