Sure one person can do something alone, but when there are more people trying, the diffrence is made on a larger scale. So again, Im just glad that I was approched by a SGRho, and asked was I interested in participating in something of this magnitude.
I can believe it because not all grad chapters have Philos. It is up to the grad chapter's membership on whether or not they have Philos or Rhoers. Both of the groups require a Soror to serve as an advisor to the group much like we have advisors to undergrad chapters. The office is time consuming because the auxiliary group cannot function on its own outside of the chapter. Sure, they have their own meetings, service events, etc. but everthing that they do must be under the guidance of the grad chapter.

The Philos also attend our regional conferences and national conventions. They have meetings and sessions of their own. They elect their own national officers and also have a pageant. You are joining something really big and I do wish you well.
