Delta Sigma continues Lipscomb’s social club traditions
This year, Delta Sigma is participating in its first New Member Orientation (NMO) week since 2019. First established in 1967, Delta Sigma was reintroduced last spring. Like all of Lipscomb’s social clubs, it welcomes new members with a week of orientation activities. But during the club’s reintroduction, founding members had a chance to reconsider their NMO traditions. Instead of continuing the same activities, Delta Sigma had the opportunity to redesign. They spent months planning for their first rush cycle. Their process provided a window into the “why” behind Lipscomb’s social clubs’ traditions.

Boot Scoot a success for Line Dancing at Lipscomb
For many, Boot Scoot is a Lipscomb way to kick off the semester. Always a popular event, this year’s Boot Scoot saw more attendees than in the past, despite being relocated to Shamblin Theater. When serious rain threatened to ruin the event often held in the Square, SAB and Line Dancing at Lipscomb – the event’s hosts – decided to hold it in Shamblin Theater.

The heart of Little Women: director and lead actress share their insights
Lipscomb’s theater department brought Little Women to the stage. Director Beki Baker shared her behind-the-scenes knowledge and passion for the production. The decision to produce Little Women comes from a place of love for Baker. “I read Little Women when I was young, and so I’ve always loved the story,” the director shared. “I was actually going to direct it in 2020. It was going to be the fall 2020 musical, and of course, we all know what happened that year with the pandemic and things. So it got put on the back burner, so finally, five years later, the right opportunity came up to do it.” Behind the scenes,…
