I totally agree! I founded a Beta Sigma Phi chapter as a second year graduate student. I really needed the support and community involvement that a sisterhood provides. Now that I have graduated and moved away, I still go to my fellow founding sister with the ups and downs in my life.

if you graduated and then decided to get a second degree some schools call you undergrads, some call you something else. I looked into this when i graduated with my first degree and then wanted to get my 2nd degree (various reasons involved as to why i did not just do both at the same time). Anyway, it all depends on the school which classification someone falls in, but as far as the Federal student aid form, one who is seeking a second degree is still considered an undergraduate.

On another not,

Are there sororities who allow graduate students who were initiated as undergrads to coninue to be active members as graduate students? I thought that i had heard this before on here.

Just my thought, when i was in graduate school it was so hard to meet people and it was very lonely. I found grad school to be easier than undergrad cause all my classes were in my feild that i have studied in a long time. Anyway, i really missed my sorority and wished that there was a place that i could go to like my sorority for friendship, ect. The graduate student associate was not very sociable and i really wanted the friendships i had at my undergraduate chapter. I really don't see anything wrong with grad students being in chapters. I think that the support system one finds in their house would become more important. But that could just be my opinion.
