The guy who was student program director at the university radio station was pledge master and later Chapter President. Another of the guys working at the station was also a Delt. They were the first two.

My aunt (followed by my Kindergarten teacher)

My first weekend of college, the RAs gave the freshmen a tour of the campus. One of those RAs was wearing DPhiE letters so she was the first.

The first person I met was Colin. WElll, he was the first one of the people I knew that joined. I met him like a couple days before Kuhlman. The real first person I met that ended up as my pledge brother was Rob.

The first ZTA that I met was walking around campus with another sorority woman to sign up girls for recruitment. When recruitment started, the first ZTA I met became my big sis! She is still one of my best friends.

The first person/people I met were Theta Nu Xi's Zeta Chapter founders. I met them over email though. The first person I met in-person was my Dean.

My orientation leader was a d phi e and there were only 2 girls and 7 guys in our group. So she did her best to make us comfortable. BOTH of us ended up pledging :D Stacy rocks!

My (biological) sister. She's four years older than me and I really had no clue about sororities until she joined.

Later I also found out there were a few alumnae living in my (small) hometown but I didn't know it before I joined.

My great-aunt was way cool, and once, I was having lunch with her & her friends and mentioned that I was in a sorority. One of the ladies said that she was a ZTA, and I was thrilled! She was the first ZTA I ever met, and a very lovely lady (she had to be, to be my aunt's friend! :) ).

delta gamma was colonizing at nc state and i got interested a little too late to become a founding sister. but in one of my very boring classes was the most influential person for me in regards to greek life and delta gamma. i didn't know her, but i overheard her talking to a guy she sat beside about her dg experience. eventually i inquired about it and she was very encouraging. i went through their first "formal rush" which was really in the spring and i got to pref night and didn't get a bid. i was absolutely crushed. she was very upset as well and couldn't believe i didn't get a bid. a few weeks later she told me that there would be a COB event coming up soon and that i should go to it. i told her, why would they want me now if they didn't want me then. she told me, don't worry about it, just go and you'll be fine. she said DG just needed to get another look at me. so as painful as it was, i swallowed my pride and pushed myself to go. and now i'm so happy i did because now i am part of a wonderful organization! when i asked all of the girls what they thought when i came back to the COB event, they all said they really admired me for it and that it was very impressive. so, thanks so much meredith turnbull!

a guy from high school who later became my Big Brother when I was Pledging.

I met Sharon when she was Rushing the fall of my freshman year, she was a sophmore. Sharon was best friends with a girl who lived nextdoor to me, Kristen. Sharon was over one night and she was wearing a sweatshirt from the same High School as my cousin (who I am really close to) so I asked her if she knew him. She did and we stated talking and became instant friends.

She became the Rush Chair and she made it her job to get me to join, even though I was dead set against joining a sorority. She finally convinced me to come to an open house.

My Big left school before I was initiated.. Sharon took over and has been my "Adopted Big" for almost 2 years now. She's one of my very best friends.. She's even going to be a bridesmaid of mine someday :D

I think I first met a sister at a booth at Frosh Orientation. She was the current president and eventually became my great grand big sis. I don't remember talking to her much so that's why I consider another sister the first Chi Delt I spoke to. She ended up being my pledge mom and in the same family.
