I am a humble child of God, I am of good moral character, I am in good academic standing, I have been in public service my whole life, I have never missed a Delta event held at my campus, I have been to Delta national and regional conventions, I have met national presidents and other officers of Delta, I am a legacy, and I was denied membership. As you can imagine the devistation was incredible not only for me but my mother and the rest of the women in my family who are deltas. We have been waiting for this moment in my life to occur just as any other major step in life. I never had the attitude of what Delta could do for me, it was what I could do for Delta. I never wanted to strut with letters and stroll at parties. That wasn't important to me. I wanted to work on National programs and further the purpose of the organization. But I am not bitter, and I understand that if it wasn't my time it wasn't my time. I will continue to support Delta, as hard as it may be, because my love for the organization will never die. Yes it is hard but I cannot question the will of God. Everything happens for a reason and it is important to keep a positive attitude. I just want to encourage those on their journey to greekdom not to give up. It isn't easy but if you are in it for the right reasons, and it is in your heart, it will happen, in due time.
God Bless
