1. Did you decide upon your organization of choice PRIOR to visiting GC?
Yes I did

2. Would you let the views or beliefs of one sway your interest to another organization?
NO. Choosing an organization you are planning to make a lifetime commitment to does not and should not involve anyone but you. Allowing a person to sway you seems to show a lack of conviction.

3. Would you let the tactics of another (member or non-member) sway your decision to become a member of an organization you really had no interest in?
No, because that person does not refect the National organization, just her mood that particualr day. People are falliable and we will make mistakes. I will not blame that person's shortcomings on Alpha Kappa Alpha.

4. Do you think that you would be offended if someone came to you so that you could become a member of their organization when you have clearly decided that you want to become a member of another organization?
No I would thank that person for considering me but my heart is set on Alpha Kappa Alpha, no offense taken

5. What does the notion that someone would try to deliberately sway your intent say about that person?
If this person knew about my interest in Alpha Kappa Alpha, I would think that they are rather desprate or just don't get it. i won't work with me.

6. Would you find fault with the organization as a whole or only the person?
If the person is unyielding in her efforts to convince me I would probably still blame the person and not the organization for her actions.

7. What does that say, if anything about the person who tries to get you to follow her into her organization when that isn't really what you want to do?
Again, it makes me think that the person is recruiting me than the other way around.

8. Ultimately, what kind of person would you be to succumb and follow when you know that isn't what you want to do?
A follower and not a leader, and very weak willed.

9. Could you look yourself in the mirror?
Yes, although I know I would never do such a thing, I am still a God fearing woman with the will to suceed. I don't think it is the most terrible thing in the world because I'm sure that many greeks were pressured into joining XYZ when they wanted to be in ABC. They coped with there decision and still served their repsective orgs.

10. What does that say (if it says anything) about your integrity?
in·teg·ri·ty Pronunciation Key (n-tgr-t)
n.
Steadfast adherence to a strict moral or ethical code.
The state of being unimpaired; soundness.
The quality or condition of being whole or undivided; completeness.

Is there something immoral about choosing any greek organization whether you were influenced by someone or not? See the problem with this is that people are bound to their own moral and ethical beleifs. IMHO it says nothing about anyone's integrity.
