I'm a day late and a dollar short but here are my responses:
Did YOU join your sorority through a collegiate or alumnae chapter?
Graduate (Alumnae) Chapter
For those who joined via the ALUMNAE chapter,
A. Did you apply for membership during your college years?
no, the school I went to had a chapter that was extinct (all the members had graduated)
B. While waiting for the chance to join, what did you do in the meantime?
got my Bachelors, moved to DC, moved back to VA, went back to grad school, and developed emotionally, mentally and spiritually.
C. While others around you were becoming members, how did you stay focused on the mission of joining the sisterhood that you felt lead to pursue?
I knew my time was coming, even though I was rejected and had to wait for a year before I could become a member, I JUST knew it was coming, and I'd like to think life before Zeat prepared me for life WITH Zeta. Now I can take sisterly or unsisterly correction without thinking folks are hating, I can appreciate the work that Zeta does for her community, and the business aspect of sorority life.
Zeta enriches my life but it doesn't consume it, and I can honestly say that if I never had an opportunity to be a Zeta, I would still live a fulfilling life... just a little less satisfying and a little less dull with no royal blue and white to brighten up my days
