From my first day on campus I knew I wanted to be a Gamma Phi. I actually ran into a CLC, at a block party and talked to her for over 2 hrs. They were starting a new chapter at Southeast Missouri Stae (now ZD chapter!) and I decided to not go through regular rush and interview to be a founding mother. I loved EVERYTHING about G Phi B. But when it was time to interview with the International President, I had come down with an awful sinus infection. I guess the sniffling, sneezing, coughing version of me was highly non impressive because I didn't get a bid
But, that spring, I was went through informal rush (I also had friends who did become founding mothers!) and was given a bid. 50 rushed and 12 were chosen.
I have NEVER regretted becoming a Gamma Phi. I did resign for a few years due to personal issues. (had 4 friends die, my grandfather died, and broke up with my fiance inside of a year....that sounds sooo like a country song. *lol*) But now I'm an alumae member, and I still love everything about my experience collegiately and as an alum. And I can thank the CLC (Julie Dunn! :-) ) For showing me what Gamma Phi is all about!
