I went back to school after I was separated and decided that I really wanted to experience sorority life. I live in an apartment off campus and my roommate is 19, turning 20 this month. We are the best of friends. I'm highly mature, so please don't doubt my maturity. I have friends of all ages, including my boyfriends 15 year old sister who I can relate to quite easily.
I don't think it's fair to judge a person on their age. Yes I'm 27, but that doesn't make me less of a sister than anyone else. I go to school full time and work full time as well and still dedicate mounds of time to DZ. I wouldn't make any changes to my life.
I think it's very narrowminded to say that only girls of a certain age bracket should be able to pledge. You're missing out on a lot of wonderful women with that kind of attitude.
My sisters have accepted with open arms, actually begged me to join when I first came out and have never thought twice about my age.

AMEN!!! Thank You DZ Princess!!! You are also an example of how if you want to be in a NPH sorority past a "certain"age, it is possible.
