What do you think the role of a pi chi is? The role of a pi chi begins with a good foundation, which is developing the knowledge and appreciation of all the Panhellenic sororities on UTC’s campus. Being past Membership Education for my sorority, I understand how important it is to learn the specific details of the organization in order to fully appreciate it. Additonally, it is important for pi chis to develop a relationship with PNMs so they feel comfortable enough to have whole hearted conversations about their thoughts and feelings through the recruitment process without the fear of offending or feeling judgement from their Pi Chi. They also need to be approachable so all PNMs, not just in their group, can feel comfortable enough to approach them with questions, concerns, or just someone to talk to. A role outside of the PNM’s eyes is being able to work with people of different personalities, backgrounds, and Greek affiliations to be able to make the preparation process and recruitment week go smoothly. Describe in detail all offices, positions, and leadership experiences you have had within your sorority and outside of your sorority and explain how …show more content…
She sent us all an email with a “Get to Know Me” document attached to it during the summer before formal recruitment. I remember thinking, this is it. This is the life I have been dreaming of ever since I had received my acceptance letter to UTC. She talked about how much she loved Chattanooga and how impactful the Greek system had on her life. This idea I had in my mind about moving to college and joining a sorority now had a personal connection for me. My Pi Chi was a house head through recruitment so I was around other Pi Chi’s more than my actual one. I remember think how special I felt that a stranger cared so much about me and tried to develop relationships with all of us when she had her own group to attend to as well. It definitely made the
I learned so much about the things I was capable and not capable to do and about the foundation of Lambda Theta Alpha Latin Sorority Inc. The lovely ladies of Lambda Theta Alpha Latin Sorority Inc. always made me feel very comfortable to the point that I was able to be myself around them. However, when I tried that with the other sorority members it did not felt the same way. The other sorority made me feel left out and uncomfortable when being around them and that’s something that Lambda Theta Alpha Latin Sorority Inc. did not. Being able to talk one on one, ask for help and talk to the ladies like a regular friend was one of the reason why I chose Lambda Theta Alpha Latin Sorority
The abiding impression that numerous Pi Nu chapter men of Kappa Alpha Psi have imprinted in my heart with its motto, “achievement in every field of human endeavor,” I wish to obtain membership into Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Incorporated. I am currently a sophomore criminal justice major at University of Maryland Eastern Shore. In addition, my desire to become an active member of your fraternity has been in my heart and mind.
A lot of the girls have been mentors and peer leaders to me before their process, and remained the same people after. I value their genuine nature. As for their presence on campus, it is very positive and community oriented. The young women of Xi Gamma always seem to go the extra mile when putting on programs for our campus community. I also respect the work that grad chapter puts in for the surrounding community. Since I am from the east side of Columbus, I can serve as a liaison between the organization and the surrounding community to help create more initiatives that cater to what the community needs the most, especially for young minority women. Lastly I will contribute my past leadership experience with executive boards, and class government to the organization. One of the biggest thing I learned throughout my leadership experience that you must always be a servant leader, you cannot tell a group a people that you are leading to do something you wouldn’t do yourself. If I am granted leadership I will lead by example in hopes to inspire others to do the
My most meaningful moment in Gamma Phi Beta was the day I was elected Chapter President. Throughout my life, I have never been very confident in myself or my abilities. During the whole election process, I was expressing a lot of self doubt. I didn’t know if I could hold a position, let alone help lead our chapter. My hesitation soon disappeared when my sisters wanted me to become president. Without my sisters supporting me and encouraging me, I would not be as a happy as I am, nor would I be as confident as I am today. Gamma Phi Beta has given me so many meaningful memories, but the most important thing that Gamma Phi beta has given me is confidence in
I will be an asset to the sorority as I am an asset to this world. I strive to motivate, educate and inspire through my volunteer work and leadership. My strong work ethic helps me balance my school work with my extracurricular activities, including Strange Fruit Dance Company, Love United Gospel Choir, Women’s Media Group, and Women’s Coordinating Council. I also find it important to give back with the University of
It was not until after I became an initiated sister to Delta Zeta that I truly got involved. One night during Chapter our President at the time started to discuss all the different positions that were available for the upcoming year. While listening to this list one position in particular caught my eye, it was a position to be the sisterhood chair, which includes planning enjoyable events that all the sisters want to be apart in. I love creating, planning, and organizing so sisterhood chair was the right position for me. During my time in this position I planned a cook out, a trip to the haunted corn maze, sisterhood retreat, and much more. This year I applied to be our Chapters VP of Programs with in this position I make our calendar for the
The three main reasons I am excited to join a sorority include my personal development, loyalty and friendship, and support of my aspirations. As a sister, there is an expectation of social interaction and personal development. I am confident that my experience and communication skills will be enriched by the activities that I participate in, the responsibility I take, and the people I meet. I am looking forward to making friends for life. I think that the atmosphere and set up of a sorority fosters and encourages the development of lifelong friendships through common aims and shared experiences. I also believe that sorority life emphasizes and encourages loyalty to and among the sisterhood, my school and the nation. Support from my sisters
I would like to become a member of Phi Lambda Sigma because I believe that through this society, I will be able to join my peers in bettering our leadership abilities both professionally and socially. As we work together as student pharmacists during our time at Ohio Northern, I find it especially important to further the profession of pharmacy outside of the classroom, whether that is through outreach, professional development, or lobbying, our efforts do not go unnoticed. Becoming a member of Phi Lambda Sigma would help me grow into a better leader during my last few years at ONU by providing me with opportunities to practice leadership skills, learn from my peers, and network with others in our profession. In the past few years, I have had
Alpha Kappa Alpha, Sorority, Incorporated purpose is to be of service to all mankind dealing with critical issues in communities domestically and internationally. What I have grown to understand an envision a woman of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated to be, I accredit largely to the ladies of the Gamma Theta chapter. This has the result of attending many of the chapter’s events during my time at Hampton thus far. One of my favorite events was a screening of a documentary Girls Rising. I learned to appreciate every opportunity to learn and gain knowledge because in some parts of the world girls are restricted from receiving an education. A

Day in and day out we hear about high school and college students wanting to pursue a sorority and/or a fraternity based on the stereotypes these organizations uphold, well I chose to differ. I told myself if I ever decided to become a member of a sorority it would be based solely on their ethical standards, history, and values they are founded upon. Alpha Kappa Alpha, Incorporated consists of ladies of distinction and exemplary character who excel in scholarship, leadership, and service, which are qualities I have chosen to uphold. From my perspective, I encourage myself to maintain a respectable appearance and reputation which doing so inspires me to embrace my self-concept; which helps me confidently excel academically and
Members of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Incorporated have made everlasting effects on my life. Having mentors in this fraternity allowed me to see how every member feels responsible for improving the communities that they are from. They never hesitate to take the leadership roles that are needed to see change. I would like to become a member of Alpha Phi Alpha because it would allow us to share a brotherhood with great men, it will allow me to make valuable connections with other positive men around the world, and it will help me become the best version of myself. My desire to become a member of this fraternity began my freshmen year after I attended the first informational meeting. At this meeting I was able to speak with members and also learn from them. They each have strong leadership characteristics that allow them to serve on executive boards across campus and they all are high achieving students at Cornell.
Joining a sorority is not just four for years but for life. Going through a week-long process of meeting thousands of girls can be intense, overwhelming but intriguing and exciting as well. Recruitment to many is known as a terrifying process where girls come from all over with matching shirts, bright smiles and dreams that at the end of the week they will receive the white envelope that incases the 4x6 card with the sororities crest inviting them into their sisterhood. By preparing ahead of time, which includes building a resume, searching for recommendation letters and extensive research on each chapter, sorority recruitment doesn’t have to be an intimating process.
In order to get information for my paper, I interviewed someone with a position of authority within Tri Delta. Her name is Danielle, and she is the new member educator. The first thing I learned about Tri Delta is that it is more than just letters on a shirt, songs and chants, a gold pin, socials, rituals, an obligation, or a way of life. “Being in a sorority is about learning about people and being able to give without expecting a return. Tri Delta has allowed me to find lifelong friends and find confidence in myself as well as in my sisters,” Danielle explained. After hearing her explanation, I couldn’t agree more. Danielle also told me that the close relationships are her favorite part. “My favorite part about being in Tri Delta is the sisterhood.
In addition to scholarship, National Honor Society emphasizes community service. I have a passion for service and have been involved in service projects through my church, Dance Team, FFA and 4H. As I reflect on all of the community service events I have assisted in, I have realized that each time I have helped others, I have grown as a person. I have learned to be appreciative of all of the opportunities that my situation has provided for me. Leadership is yet another quality that National Honor Society builds. I have worked on developing my leadership skills through my participation in 4H, church youth group, FFA, and dance. I would like to gain more leadership experience by helping to organize the activities that National Honor Society has throughout the year. A positive character is recognized and developed by National Honor Society. I strive to always maintain a good character. I work hard and try to be a positive role model as a student, employee, volunteer, and friend. Character is important to me because of the leadership position I am put
