Name: Carey
Chapter: Alpha Lambda (yay for alum initiation!)
School: in grad school at UT Austin
Year Joined: Fall 2003
Status: Alum
Current Office: I've been told that now that I'm a full fledged sister, I'm the webmaster! Hopefully the Austin Alumnae site will be up soon for everyone to check out!
Why I joined: I had really wanted to join as an undergrad, but it just didn't work out with my schedule, since my school wasn't on the main university campus. So when i started grad school, I felt like it might be time for me to pursue that dream again. After I started attending events with the ivy connection, I knew instantly that I had done the right thing, and really wanted to be a member of Alpha Phi. I saw how incredible all of the girls were, and how much they cared about each other. It was amazing, and I'm really lucky to be a part of something so special!
After my initiation (which wasn't too long ago!) I found out that someone I had cared a great deal about had been really misleading me about all kinds of things. My new sisters were all there immediately to help me and to make sure that I was going to be ok. I already knew that they were all phenomenal girls, but that they were there having ice cream with me and comforting me and trying to do whatever they could to help me was unbelievable. I'm so proud and honored to be an Alpha Phi!
