Wow, congrats! I looked up her and she seems very impressive. Her platform, Mental Health, is a cause near and dear to me - I work in the mental health field (not military, but general public). If she can chip away at the stigma in the military and also the lay public, that would be amazing; her personal story makes the platform all the more powerful. More Americans than ever, post-pandemic, are in need of care, yet the stigma stops so many from pursuing care (that and insurance issues. When insurance companies start treating mental health like they do physical health, we'll have a lot to celebrate because in my experience, so many physical issues stem from mental health issues, not to mention so many societal issues). OK, off my soapbox, congrats again!!

Congratulations and best wishes to your niece!


Is this the first time we've had a Greek Chat member with a relative competing in the Miss America pageant?

[SWTXBelle]

We are very proud of her - win, lose, or draw, she has come a long way and done it all with grace. Her platform is SO important. She was in Texas last week, giving out the scholarship in honor of her deceased sister, whom many of you remember from the terrible time we went through when she drowned.

Add in Miss Texas 2021 Mallory Fuller. She's a Theta and an Aggie '20.

Wow, that’s 16 sorority women competing for Miss America 2022. Are there still more state competitions to be decided?

Did it for you. It really should have allowed you to do so, but I'll keep checking in case it does not.
