I definately agree with what has been said here, I love my sorority, but if they had been local, I would still love them! I know it doesn't happen everywhere, but I picked my chapter because I liked the girls in it, and not for any national reputations. If the same girls had been in a local chapter, I would have picked them just the same.
However, now that I'm alum I love having a national structure to fall back on, and meeting new Chi Omegas. I suppose you can say I "bought" my freindship, but my initation fee was well worth it!! I have met quite a few women through my sorority that I would not have talked to otherwise, and it has enriched my life tremendously. I also like that wherever I move in the United States, and even the world, there are alumna there I can go and meet. The opportunity for such a social network is amazing, and I feel lucky to have it.
