Pledging while Conceiving
 
Hi
I have a question. i'm beginning the process of pledging a sorority and my main concern is that i am pregnant. last year when i received my BSN i inquire about the sorority and later on into the year i found out i was pregnant. im pledging for the graduate level and plan on attaining my MSN this year.I wonder will this be a barrier to acceptance into the sorority? should i continue with the process or not?

You don't have an advisor that you can speak with?

ETA: This thread title seems a bit odd.

I can't comment on whether or not your pregnancy would impact your acceptance by the members, but I feel certain that pledging while conceiving would be... interesting to say the least.

As an aside (has nothing to do with sorority life), I'm pretty concerned that a nursing school graduate doesn't know the difference between conceiving and being pregnant.

Are you preparing to participate in membership intake for an NPHC sorority through an alumnae chapter?

This. I'm not buying what she's selling.

I've heard there are plots like this in those movies they used to keep behind the curtain at the movie store.

oh thats mean. i didnt want to put such a crazy topic out there. im pregnant. i wanted to input the title: "pledging while prgenant" but i just second guess myself. i didnt think it would come off to others as ignorance. i assume sisters of a sorority are suppose to be accepting to others if they lack the knowledge in a specific area, not judge. i 'm asking for advice in refernce to what i should do. i would love to participate in various activities present but i just wonder is it something i should look into at a later time or just go for it?

smartypants31us 01-27-2012 04:09 PM

yes its through a alumnae chapter.

This is probably a troll but whatever.

If you are truly participating in membership intake through an alumnae chapter for an NPHC sorority, you are old enough to use correct capitalization, grammar, syntax, and know what conceiving means. We will judge you and so will members of the sorority that you claim to be joining.

Then your question cannot be answered on Greekchat.

smartypants31us 01-27-2012 04:34 PM

Okay. Thank you for your response and honesty. I truly appreciate the comments. I will consult an advisor for further assistance related to this subject matter.
