Valentine's Day is right around the corner and, in the spirit of the season, Lambda chapter would love to extend their appreciation out to the number one girl in their eyes, Danielle Vernon: a member of Pi Beta Phi sorority, a student worker, and a senior; but most importantly our beloved Sweetheart.
