I love seeing all the sorority members/ women engineers on here!!! We are all testaments to the fact that it can be done (and done well!
). I was an engineering major in school and chapter President during the two semesters that are typically the most difficult for my field. You will definately have to make sacrifices in terms of social events and relaxation time but you will find it is one of the most rewarding decisions you will ever make. During recruitment, make sure you stress your commitment to both your major (academics and good grades are key for sorority membership) and to being an involved member of a sorority. If it sounds like an active is concerned about your grades or time to be involved with the sorority.. tell her about your time management skills or how you plan to do both.
It's great that you are interested in Greek Life! While there are many women in engineering and sororities, I always run into people who are surprised and impressed that I could do it and I have to say, it helped me immensely during job interviews that I could show I had a personality to go along with brains...
