1 ~ College/University: Valparaiso University

2 ~ Chapter: Eta Psi

3 ~ Collegian/Alumnae: Alumna

4 ~ ADPi/Panhellenic positions: NMC, Guard, Social were the big ones. Then of course Corresponding secretary, Pride Leader, maybe something else small? Can't remember... and it wasn't all THAT long ago.

5 ~ Why I joined ADPi: The women. I knew and respected some of the sisters from other activities I particpated in on campus. It was a pleasant suprise to also discover they were in a sorority. The group was very diverse. And then pref night hit me hard- with all the songs, poems, hugs, tears (of happiness of course!) and sisterly displays of affection. I knew right away that I belonged.
That was actually why i joined our local sorority. Why I joined ADPi was 'cause we, as a chapter, discussed and voted on the national organizations interested in expanding to our campus. Making our "bid list" and choosing ADPi was one of the few things every single woman in our chapter could agree on! Our local sorority values and the values of ADPi were essentially the same. It was definitely a mutual selection process.

6 ~ Favorite ADPi memory: Hmmm.... Writing a "diamond sister revealing" ceremony as NMC, which my sisters absolutely loved. It was exciting to start new traditions in a new chapter. To my knowledge, the chapter still uses that same ceremony 5 years later. How cool is that!
