1.How do you ladies feel about members who decide the org isn't for them anymore because of the actions of their particular chapter?

It pains me to see some to walk out on their sorors. I guess the biggest thing to know going into my Sorority is to understand that it is Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. and the chapter is secondary. However some folks disagree.

2. Do you sometimes feel that all of the activities, $$$, and service can be overwhelming?

I thrive on challenges because that is how I joined my Sorority. It was challenging to wake up early in the morning and make sure positive statements on banners were posted before my "big sisters" woke up. However, that was a long time ago and times have changed... And the activities, monies and services are greatly similar to what needs to be done in my career. So, my Sorority work prepares me for what I get paid to do.

3. Do you always feel a connection with other members such as those older or younger than you? If you don't does it seem strange?

I made a pledge to refrain from ill will toward any of my Sorors and I still hold true to that pledge to this day. Do I feel connected as a soror to other sorors? Most definitely. Age is factorless. I have yet to feel uncomfortable around any of my Sorors.
