I joined Delta Chi Epsilon, a local, because all of the sororities on campus were locals (and all of the fraternities were national, go figure!). I wanted what I thought was the sorority experience. It was okay to great depending on what was going on.
I didn't join Alpha Phi Omega because I didn't know most of them and I didn't think I'd have any time. We didn't have any NPHC orgs on campus, and I wasn't a music major or minor so Sigma Alpha Iota wasn't an option.
I was initiated into Sigma Tau Delta, the English honorary, the last semester of my senior year. Haven't done a thing with it.
When DXE went national, I decided to join Alpha Delta Pi. I thought it would be great to be part of a national NPC sorority. I'm gradually getting into the alumnae association near where I work, and I like the option of meeting new people and making friends since most of my friends are from college or online and are now everywhere across the country!
I was given the option of joining Beta Phi Mu, the honor society for library and information science, but I'll probably wait until my husband graduates next May. Since he's currently busting a 4.0 in grad school, it'd be cool to be initiated together. I have no idea whether the org actually *does* anything, though...
Finally, I've accepted a bid into the Delta Kappa Gamma society, an honor society for women educators. I already know three of the people in DKG, and it'll give me the chance to make more friends and get involved in my educational community in the Aurora/North Aurora/DuPage/Kane county areas.
