What was your opinion on Greek Life before you joined your sorority? Before I didn’t know much about it. I was in a professional music fraternity that I joined, Gamma Rho and they were professional so I didn’t really know anything about Greek Life until I met my ex-boyfriend and I didn’t see anything wrong with it. I never actually heard anything about Greek Life until I got into it and then started hearing about it in the media and stuff. What made you decide to join a sorority? My ex. He kind of got me into it and I met some of the sisters from Beta Gamma Delta and it kind of just clicked. When did you rush your sorority and how was the process? I didn’t rush, I was performing at a talent show when the President of BGD was there and she gave me an early bid and I accepted. That happened in the end of October …show more content…
With my sorority I absolutely loved them, I still love them and I’m sad that I had to drop but there might be some specific people in fraternities and sororities that are the ones that caused the big problems and then everyone automatically associates them with all of Greek Life. I don’t think that’s right, I think Greek Life is a really good thing and especially if you’re going to do something where there is people in your specific fraternity or sorority that can give you the connections you need. It also builds up your self-esteem and it builds up being able to talk in front of people. You’re going to be able to learn time management and organizing events and whatnot, so I honestly think Greek Life is a really good thing and it’s great to have it at college because it helps build up college students throughout the process of going through classes and stuff. You have classes and homework but then with Greek Life you have philanthropy events to go to, you might have a position in your fraternity or sorority that you might have to do stuff for and whatnot, so I believe that it’s a good
Some of the highlights of the Sorority were belonging to such a wonderful Sisterhood, attending my first Regional and having the opportunity to add to my leadership skills, for that I am so grateful. At this time I am the primary caregiver for my mother, working on completing a portfolio in Nonprofit Management by December 2015 and working from home. I am available to help recruit, volunteer, make referrals, and will make certain
Greek life in Canada (mostly Ontario) is how I would assume it would be in the states however in Quebec it is much different. At Bishop’s the only Greek Life we have is Alpha Phi, there are no other Sororities or Fraternities on campus. We just celebrated our 25th anniversary in November (at my initiation). There used to be another sorority Alpha Delta Pi at Bishop’s but that was long before my time, recently someone that works on campus told us that they found some of their pins years ago and was wondering if they were ours, it turned out they belonged to Alpha Delta Pi but because of this a lot of us (especially us newer members) started doing research on them.

Greek life though might have its problems, but to say that everything that happens within a fraternity/sorority is trouble would be a large misconception. There is a decision that not only lies within Universities, but with many young people across the nation is, should we be associated with Greek life? In this
Joining the sisterhood of Kappa Kappa Gamma has enhanced my life in many ways. Throughout the past year, I not only met the friends that will be with me for the rest of my life, but met the people I call family. Every member of this sisterhood has encouraged me to be a better version of myself. In particular, this past semester, living in the chapter house and being surrounded by this amazing family throughout most of my day has increased by GPA, improved my mental and physical health, and decreased the stress that comes with being in college.
The motto for Phi Beta Kappa was “Love of wisdom, guide of life.” This fraternity was men and women connecting to fill each student’s life up with something meaningful, they volunteered, and threw safe gatherings around campus. Have fraternities’ really changed
Arriving on campus just six months ago, I was not considering being a part of Student Government Association. Now, I am the first-year class president, and I have grown so much through being in that leadership position. I would have never considered being a part of fraternity life, because of the negative stereotypes. Now, I am a part of a fraternity, and it is one of the most encouraging and uplifting communities I have ever been a part of. I did not do competitive Speech and Debate in high school, now I am a college level debater, and I will be competing in national in March.
What I should’ve done instead was to attend class every single day and 15 minutes prior to the regular time class starts, to make sure I have all my materials ready before the professor arrives and to grab the front row seat. This will improve my grades because I will be less distracted, talk less, and have hand written notes to study. I also plan to exclude myself from too much parties because I have a lot on my plate and these are first on my priority list, and are the most important. Partying can wait till after graduation. The clubs will always be there, the frat house will always be there, and people and music will always be there; what’s not always going to be there is my education, as long as I’m attending school, I will not participate in such activities because it’ll hinder my education
“Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave, I am the dream and the hope of the slave. I rise, I rise, I rise.,” to become a Delta Woman. When asked to express why I should be awarded the honor & pleasure of being apart this great sorority; I must admit I was a bit overwhelmed but also very humbled. However, I am reminded of the great women Delta Sigma Theta has helped mold some of the most influential women in the world. I want to be apart of the most illustrious sorority organization.

What were you involved in during high school? Are you living in a dorm or apartment? My advice during this round is to make it more of a conversation rather than an interview. Ask them questions to get to know them better such as what made you want to go Greek? or what is their major?
You could also meet many new people and you get to learn a lot, or learning things you love. From (www.moneycrashers.com), from a decent college student it says, “I met many of my best friends while I was at college, and I even met my spouse while working at summer internship for college students. These people have shaped my life tremendously and have helped me grow as a person.” So, college students have made relationships with other people that affect each other’s lives in a great decent
On October 1, 2015 Alexis and I attended “Greek Life.” The performances were so amazing. Before I was enrolled into college I was so excited to see sorority and fraternity battles and performances. Seeing videos of the fraternities and sororities dancing all over the internet made me more excite to be a part of a University. I will always remember these performances.
