Alpha Chi Omega - I like that the founders were creating the first and last group of it's kind, so they choses the Alpha and Omega as their first and last symbols. A friend just pledged here, and it has made her college experience so rich already.

Alpha Delta Pi - my first experience with sororities was from two ADPis. They were both some of the classiest women I know and had an absolutely amazing house. It made me want to be in a sorority. Thanks ADPi! It's also pretty amazing to be able to say you're the first.

Alpha Epsilon Phi - Ruth Bader Ginsberg as an alumna is something to be proud of! And the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric Aids Foundation is a fabulous organization to support.

Alpha Gamma Delta - Wow - the widest spread active chapters of an international sorority! I also like your focus on healthy living and seeking "To develop and prize health and vigor of body".

Alpha Omicron Pi - I think it's wonderful that your symbols and rituals (so I hear are based on greek traditions, rather than Roman or Masonic. I also LOVE the red! And AOII has a great reputation of class.

Alpha Phi - growing up, my whole bedroom was ivy-themed. If only Alpha Phi were at my school, I'm sure I would have joined just for that!

Alpha Sigma Alpha - I like the open motto Aspire, Seek, Attain.

Alpha Sigma Tau - I like the idea of a national philanthropic service project (Habitat for Humanity). And it's so easy to find cute stuff with anchors on them!

Alpha Xi Delta - gorgeous badge! I think it's interesting you have exact instructions on how to wear it.

Chi Omega - the largest sorority and they also have love for the owl. I like the separate New Member website with all kinds of information. "The first secret was that Chi Omega didn't have any secrets. The founders wore ribbons tied together on their blouses to tease the boys. The colors of the ribbons were olive and crushed plum. Why? Because they were the ugliest colors the founders put together!" Too funny!!

Delta Delta Delta - When I was looking into recruitment, I thought that Tri-Delta was THE sorority to be in. I am amazed by the number of successful and famous alumnae. I like the pearl, pine tree, and pansy used to note the stages of membership.

Delta Gamma - a very diverse group of successful alumnae - from Joan Lunden to Ann Coulter to Patricia Heaton. And the anchor is SO in right now.

Delta Phi Epsilon - You also have love for the iris! That is my favorite flower. I think the PEARL program is great, with it's focus on development in the 5 S's: Sisterhood, Scholarship, Service, Social, and Self.

Delta Zeta - I love Joy Behar on The View. I also like that The Lamp features a little information from each chapter, so you know what your sisters are up to around the country.

Gamma Phi Beta - every sister I know is smart, fun, and friendly. The Crescent also has a great article about the Millenial generation and they seem very in touch with the collegiate woman.

Kappa Alpha Theta - everyone wanted to be a Theta during my recruitment. They always did things different, like stand up when everyone else sat or serve cider when everyone else had cokes. I think this extends to your membership, as all the Thetas I've met are very classy, together women.

Kappa Delta - A friend in high school had an older sister who was a KD, and she was so smart, gorgeous, and together, I thought KD must be THE classy sorority to have her as a member. And I'll always remember the colors (which I love!) because her room was covered in KD stuff.

Kappa Kappa Gamma - IamsohappythatIama! Kappa means more to me than any other organization I've been a part of. I'm always amazed by the support and encouragement I get from my sisters - locally and nationally.

Phi Mu - I think the quatrefoil is such a classy symbol! I also think it's great you can shop the carnation collection right off of the website (and there is some really cute stuff!) I also love the recruitment signs that say "welcome home" with a phi instead of an O in "home."

Phi Sigma Sigma - we share the sapphire with you! I love your vision: Phi Sigma Sigma is a dynamic sisterhood of powerful women fostering uncompromising principles, igniting positive change, and embracing individuality. Very powerful!

Pi Beta Phi - I just realized this was the first NPC to "go national." I have always wondered about this and think it's an amazing fact to claim! Plus, the Monmouth Duo always has a special place in my heart.

Sigma Delta Tau - Many dear friends of mine are SDTs. I also preffed here and was very tempted to put them first. I like that The Torch is easily opened online, and it's filled with SDTs doing great things and calls to action for helping out locally to nationally.

Sigma Kappa - your website is so easy to navigate and full of useful information. The Virtual Violet is a fantastic idea - a monthly email newsletter where alumnae can keep in touch on a local and national level.

Sigma Sigma Sigma - I love the sailboat symbolizing continual forward motion, never moving backward, but progressing towards its destination. And it must be so easy to get paraphernalia in the summertime.

Theta Phi Alpha - What an amazing creed! "justice to each fellow man, wisdom in each deed and plan, loyalty to every friend, faith that sorrow can transcend, truth to God and self, honor valued over wealth..." If only we all strove to live by these words.

Zeta Tau Alpha - I volunteer with Susan G. Komen for the Cure, and local Zetas are a huge part of our support team. Thank you Zeta!! I also adore the five-pointed crown as a symbol. And collegians get Self magazine as a membership benefit??? Wow!
