Ok I have a few, and for all varying reasons/to different degrees.
Delta Gamma: My best friend-since-we-were-born's mom was a DG at my parents' alma mater and she is AWESOME. Growing up our families were really close, and I really admire her. I also love their open motto, Do Good, love the badge, love the anchor symbolism and that each house has one outside. Also, I feel like they were a very prominent organization in the area I grew up and I hear about them a lot; I can't remember a time in my life when I didn't know what DG was.
AOII: My mom is an AOII and I love hearing her stories, learning about sorority life, and just growing up with it. I have her old jersey that I used to wear as a PJ shirt. I know it's a little on the superficial side, but I also think it's cool that they don't have a crest/coat of arms because they are staying true to the Greek tradition; same thing with the strictness about what forms their letters can be in/on what things (my mom talks about this). I also cannot remember a time when I didn't know what AOII was. Funny, I thought I would end up at my parents' and childhood BFF's mom's alma mater and be in one of their chapters
It didn't work out that way, but then I would never have found Alpha Phi!
Delta Delta Delta: I preffed here, so I feel a connection to it. I also love the motto, "Let us steadfastly love one another." That really gives me chills. My close family friend also just became a new member here and I couldn't be more thrilled for her!
Alpha Delta Pi: I don't know as much about this org as the others I have listed, but I think the Ronald McDonald House is a beautiful cause. I also think the history as the Adelphean Society is cool. Also, their motto is
seriously my favorite (next to Union hand in hand
), "We live for each other." Honestly, every time I read or hear that, it nearly brings tears to my eyes. It has a poetic, emotional profundity to it that just gets me.
I really like this thread. I think it is very Panhellenic
