[PhoenixAzul]

From a different perspective...

I'm an alumna of a local sorority, who lives really. really. far from her chapter. It was difficult for me to make alum meetings when I lived in Pittsburgh, and impossible when I lived in Scotland, but now that I live in Oklahoma, it is still really challenging for me to be involved in more than a cheerleader kind of way. I'd love to be able to make it to alum/pledge events, to certain rituals, to meetings and football games and formals...but alas, I can't.

And now that I'm beginning my career, I'm going to make provisions for the sisterhood in my annual budgeting. While a warm body is good, cash helps too! The sisterhood is also remembered in my will (which is how I found out my lawyer was a Sigma Nu. Small world!)

If there was an alumni chapter of my school in my area, I'd join (I don't know what the status of our Arizona chapter is?) because that would be a way to meet sisters, but without being in the area of Columbus, it can be hard to impact the chapter.
