This is a great thread, thanks so much for "borrowing" the idea from the lovely Alpha Gams.
College or University-Northeastern Chapter at a large school
Collegian or Alumnae -- I'm a proud alumna of ADPi.
ADPi and Panhelleic positions held--Assistant Rush and then Rush Chair, Corresponding Secretary, Homecoming Chair, Pride Leader...those are what I remember from my collegiate experience.
As an alumna I've served as Recruitment Advisor, ADPi Alumnae Association President, and Panhellenic Representative.
Why you joined ADPi -- I loved it from the very first moment I walked into the room the first night of rush. It felt so exciting and peaceful at the same time. The women were incredibly intelligent, funny, motivated, well-traveled, articulate, beautiful, ambitious...everything I admired.
Favorite ADPi memory--Practically too many to talk about. I honestly loved chapter meetings, and when I was first initiated, I was in awe of the Seniors and Juniors talking about taking their MCATs, LSATS and GREs.
I loved serving as Rush Chair, I was not perfect, I made mistakes in terms of managing my resources correctly, but I did it in a "safe" environment where I was able to learn from what I did. As an alumna I can take my experience and actually help some other woman through the same thing.
I loved, loved, loved winning Greek Week my Junior year of college! That is such a fun memory, I had written a lot of our skit, which blew everyone away and we took the Greek Week crown from the sorority who had won it the previous 4 years in a row (and were notorious cheaters)! That was such a fun day!
Thanks for this thread!

P.S. I know I'm vague about the details of my experience (which chapter and what not,) but I had a bit of an identity theft problem a few years ago, so I'm always cautious about the information I give out. I know it's probably silly, but it make me feel a bit better.
