God! That would be GREAT!!!!! I have always felt like something was missing. Both of my (real) sisters are DZ's and I feel like I just miss a special "something" with them! I don't even know where I would start this process! There is one question I have however? I never did graduate from College!?  I am not sure if that would be a factor or not, but I do know that I could offer so much to the "sisters." Any other info. would be appreciated! IF ONLY IT COULD BE MY "DREAM COME TRUE"!!!
Thanks again soooo much...you really put a smile on my face today!

Pledge missing "Something"

Hi Brooke,
I am so delighted that my post was of benefit to you!
Please do come to the Alumni forum...- we'd LOVE to have you and you will get lots of support from other women who are pursuing Alumnae Initiation or who already have done it!
(I myself am an Alumna Initiate of Delta Gamma). There are 2 women are pursuing Alumnae Initiation right now (although not with Delta Zeta) and one woman was initiated into Gamma Phi Beta on April 9th. I so HEAR YOU when you say "I felt like something was missing", because I felt the same way before I was initiated into DG (I was part of a colony that never succeeded).
Be sure to check out
My Advice to Prospective Alumnae Initiates!
As for where to start, I would speak to your sisters and tell them that you would like to explore the possibility of being an alumna initiate and would they be willing to sponsor you? I would also write up some sort of a document/statement as to why you still want to be initiated into Delta Zeta, etc. This could go along with your sisters' letters of intent to sponsor you.
As for the "I did not graduate from college" - I would not let this sway you. Some NPC sororities want a degree (and in some cases will waive this requirement) and others do not want a degree but perhaps 2 years of college. I don't know that much about DZ's requirements, since I am not one, so hopefully there are some DZ's who can help out!
I will keep my fingers crossed for you!
