Greek Life has Changed me, You too?
Can something considered an extracurricular have so much meaning? Change a person’s life? The answer is Yes. If I’m similar to other girls in college who are in a sorority, I can surely say that being apart of a sorority has given my life more substance. By this I mean that being apart of an organization has made me feel apart of something bigger than myself. At college, I am a sister of Sigma Delta Tau. Our motto is One Hope for Many People. There are so many ways to interpret this, but I interpret it as an idea that Sigma Delta Tau provides girls a chance to distinguish themselves and provide for communities, friendships and find who they are.
Every girl I have met who is in a sorority states that Greek Life has changed who they are, in the most beneficial way possible. Sororities allow for me and others forever friendships, leadership opportunities and chances to give back the community through volunteering and fundraising for numerous philanthropies. It also gives a sense of pride to me that I am apart of such a large organization which can create numerous connections for me in the working world. Lucky is not even close to how I feel when I reflect on being apart of SDT, but grateful. All sisters in a sorority should feel appreciative that there is a group so similar yet diverse to them. I believe that there is a place for everyone in Greek Life and letting it be apart of my life is the best decision I’ve ever made.
Anyone else feel the same?
