A new AI Story unfolds
 

I've been lurking for weeks to read about other AI stories. Before I found this site I had already contacted IH and an alumnae chapter of a GLO that I was interested in. Well, after meeting with some of the women they have offered me the opportunity to join their sisterhood!!! I'm so excited! I've already filled out the AI application and just need to wait to hear back from IH but their Alumnae VP is local and has already heard all about me from the former President of the Alumnae Chapter. It's all happened so fast! If the paperwork is completed on time I might even be initiated this spring! Thanks to all of the other PNAMs who have shared their stories here I have hope that there will be a happy ending for me as well.

And, no, my user name is not an indication of the GLO for which I am a PNAM.

Oh, wow! This is great - I can't wait to find out where "home" is for you! :D

Thanks MelodyCat! I'm dying to tell but I'm also superstitious! Hopefully it won't be long before I can blab it to the world!

LittleBear!
From a recent AI, I am wishing you lots of luck

Wow! Sounds quite positive! Best of luck!

We're rooting for you....good luck! :)

Good thinking. Being a bit MORE discreet than not, is always best, IMO.

Sounds like your well on your way to AI. *sending good vibes*.:D

good luck to you on finding your home.

I can't wait to hear which GLO, it is always wise to err on the side of caution

How exciting!! I know how you feel about not "revealing" until it is for sure. I didn't tell all until I got the official word from Gamma Phi - and I'll be initiated in a little over a week!

I almost feel guilty knowing what an uphill battle it has been for some other PNAMs. I made the initial point of contact with IH and the alumnae chapter. I met a few different women on 2 occasions and within a month of my first email they extended the offer of membership! I knew then that I had found my "home." I had rushed in college but never felt at home with any of the chapters. I'm so excited to get to know more women and become more involved. There are 2 other alum initiates in their chapter so that told me they were very receptive of the idea. It's so nice to have so many great people to share my story with!:)

Hello and welcome.

Don't feel guilty, feel grateful!! It's so wonderful that you found the perfect fit. I hope you'll stick around as inspiration to all the PNAMs on here.

LM:)

congrats! i can't wait to hear how it goes!

Well, I can't help but hazard a guess -- I know that Gamma Phi Beta's headquarters is called IH -- any other GLO call their headquartrers that????????????????????;) :p :D

I'm assuming IH and IHQs are one in the same. We call AGD's main office, IHQ.

As in keeping with custom, I think we should refrain from guessing GLOs and maintain secrecy until the PNAM is ready to reveal her affiliation. :)
