A year before I joined Alpha Phi, one of my friends was starting an Asian American Sorority and asked me to be a Founding Mother. I seriously considered it, but I knew that I wanted to be in a diverse sisterhood, and the benefits of being in an International sisterhood intrigued me more. I politely declined. I stayed great friends with her and the girls in the local. They are doing great at SFSU and have a great sisterhood.
When I joined Alpha Phi, all the National Sororities had a lot of Asian members. It was never an issue being Asian-American (or any minority for that matter) in an NPC sorority at SFSU.
