Advice from a previous Gamma Chi
I was a Gamma Chi (that's what we called them) last summer. It was one of the hardest things I've done to disaffiliate from my sorority, but also one of the most fulfilling. At first it was hard; I didn't really want to get to know the other GC's, but I did want to make the best of this experience that I really wanted to participate in. I jumped in headfirst to really get to know the other girls and help everyone else do the same. By the end of the summer, we were all such good friends, and I loved spending time with the other GC's. For a minute (not too long at all), I was so close to the Gamma Chi's, it was hard to just jump back into life as an ADPi immediately. It definately was one experience I will never forget, and learned about myself. I became a whole lot more Panhellenic-minded, and understood why the other girls joined their respective sororities, not wondering why they didn't join mine....
There was laughter in abundance, and many,many tears, but overall, I wouldn't trade it for the world! I wish I could've done it again.
Enjoy your time as a Rho Gamma---you'll never experience anything else like it!!
