I was a founder of my collegiate chapter as well as my alum chapter...
-Did you specifically seek out GSS?
Actually, no. I was working at the Student Activities office at my school when I recieved a random phone call from a GSS member that was transferring. When I told her we didn't have a chapter at GSU, I was just curious to know more so I asked her about it. The rest is history!
- Did someone from GSS (alum, another chapter) unoffically introduce you to GSS ?
Yes. See above story, LOL...that caller ended up being my DP.
- How did you hear about GSS that made you want to start a chapter?
Well, the caller and I ended up meeting one another so we could talk more about GSS. She told me about the organization as a whole and how the sorority really focused on helping others. I was really impressed and I felt that GSU would benefit from having a service sorority campus.
- Why GSS instead of an NPC or NPHC org?
I felt like Gamma Sig was a good fit for me. When I first arrived at GSU, I had absolutely no knowledge of greek life. Nobody in my family is greek. So when I learned about Gamma Sig and it catering to something that's important to me personally, I felt like it would be good for me.
- Were there any other GLOs on campus?
Yes. We have NPC/IFC/NPHC on our campus, and now we have MGC as well but that wasn't there when I started school.
