I say over and over again that I have learned how to "work" a cocktail party because of my sorority membership. This skill should not be underestimated, as the wheels of business continue to be oiled at cocktail parties.

But I have to share a moment I had this week that made me think directly of my pride in what I learned from my sorority. I was introduced by the Consul General of the United States to Crown Prince Hamdan of Dubai. Yes, yikes, but have I learned how to introduce and be introduced in a formal fashion? Yes. In fact, I did it maybe 1500 times a year during college.

And SWTX, would you mind me reprinting for use to explain sorority membership to graduating girls here?
