Well being in ASA, with the strong educational background that we have, the "networking" aspect has always somewhat escaped me. Because we started as a social-educational sorority, and are at many schools that used to be "teachers colleges," a disproportionate number of our members are in education - a field I'm not affiliated with at all. I think that the networking aspect is great, but on the other side of the coin, I would hate to see someone joining ONLY for that reason. I mean, my sorority hasn't done jack squat for me in terms of my career, but I still would make the same choice. I know it's helped some of our sisters within our chapter, but truthfully I've never heard of it putting someone "over the top" in terms of getting a job.
