I am rather new to greekchat, but one of my sisters voiced some concern for things that have been posted on here, so I decided to check it out. First of all...I must say that I was glad to see TPARose clarify what she said a few postings ago, because I too feel that because we are so small-is in no way a weakness or disadvantage to Theta Phi Alpha. I am so proud to say that I have a personal relationship with many of my organizations national officers. If any of my TPA sisters do not agree, that is simply because they have not taken the given opportunity to get to know our officers and ask for help with events, etc in their chapters. As for chapters that have went inactive at large campus's, I personally am working with Penn State's panhellenic to recolonize Rho chapter that used to exist here from 1929-1969. In the past months that I have been here at Penn State, so many sisters have contacted me saying how they wish they could be apart of something like this, that they wish more sisters would take the initiative to spread what Theta Phi means to them. I personally don't understand why sisters keep saying how they wish they could do more...and yet they "do" nothing. So, my thoughts are this, why aren't more sisters taking their vows more seriously? Because I decided to transfer from Penn State's branch campus in Erie to Penn State's main campus, I'm currently not even apart of a chapter, yet there is not a day that goes by that I am not in some way testifying and representing the organization that I hold so dear to my heart. We are small, but we are strong and I truely feel that we could be stronger by making ourselves more well known. Why is this not happening within our organization?? Theta Phi has given us sooo much, I just simply feel that we are not doing our part to give back to it what it has given to us.
