There is no such thing as “coming off as a Delta.” Our organization is very diverse, with women of different backgrounds and personalities. I would first suggest getting rid of the stereotypes you have been told in the past.

I cannot speak to why they may be ghosting you. I’m not sure how you have reached out previously, but perhaps you should send the chapter a professional email stating your interest and asking about future events or programming. Otherwise, you should be showing up to their events (even if it is virtual) and continue your community service activities. Unfortunately, no one here will be able to tell you what they are thinking.

I would do some soul searching. Why do you want to be in a sorority? What attracts you to Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated? What attracts you to Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Incorporated? It shouldn’t be about stereotypes, how many members you know or stigmas you’ve heard. These are lifetime commitments that are bigger than your campus. You really need to find your why. Both are excellent international organizations with amazing women, who are doing great work in their communities.

Good luck on your journey!
