Age when Initiated

I was initiated at the tender age of 18 in the fall of my sophomore year. I know that this bucks conventional wisdom but if I had to do it over again, I probably would have waited for alumnae chapter....

I don't know what your experiences were, but I haven't decided whether I'm glad I waited or not.

On one hand, I definitely didn't have time for foolishness as college student. On the other, dammit if foolishness ain't everywhere!

To answer the question, I was 23.

Its not really about what I went through but more about how I could have approached my goals differently. Another example is that I would like to have gone to grad school straight out of undergrad instead of trying to complete it now, 20 years later. Then again, I might not have met my husband if I had not gone back home after undergrad.

I am a firm believer in the philosophy that everything happens for a reason but that doesn't preclude thinking that I could have done some things differently for better or worse.

I felt it was the right time for me. Mainly because I came in with nine other great, hard-working women.
