Why did I join KD??
Every year, our Panhellenic Council has a 1st semester ice-cream social for transfer students and new freshman. (We have deferred recruitment) Being a transfer student, I was interested in getting to know the sororities on campus. I was sitting alone while my friends were partaking in the ice cream part of the social, and a group of Kappa Deltas came up to me. They were so friendly and eager to get to know me, I couldn't help but love those girls!
The Kappa Delta in my calculus class, who was later my big!, sought me out for help in the class. She took me up the house and introduced me to all of the sisters.
The day after sororities were given permission to give out open bids, I got a knock on my door! And the rest...is history!
How did they make me feel so at home?
When I accepted my open bid on the spot, I was showered with balloons, KD shirts, and lots of KD goodies. They took me up the house to celebrate. Each sister came up to me indivually and offered to let me spend the night in her room.
I was NEVER treated as if I wasn't a "true" sister just because I was a pledge. My opinion was always graciously accepted and listened to seriously.
I love all of my sisters! You girls are the best!!!
