Hello everyone,
I know this is an old thread ,but I just wanted to get this out. I'm currently in professional school right now. I've been interested in becoming a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. for many years now. I have tried three times in the last 9 years now and I'm beginning to give it all up. I'm at the point now where I believe maybe this is not for me to do in this lifetime. As an undergrad, I tried twice. The first time, I believe it was my fault. I was too young and not prepared. The second time, I was offered and invitation for membership intake and it was retracted a few weeks before I graduated. The third time was through an alumanae chapter in a city in which I didn't know many members of delta. Over the years, I have watched many of my closest friends join the sorority. They are all wonderful and keep me encouraged. However, I've moved several times over the years to pursue my professional degree and I haven't had the opportunity again. Mostly, because there has not been any membership intake processes taking place. Most recently, a close friend of mine told me get everything in order for a potential intake. I did. Only for me to be disappointed again. She told me that the chapter decided to wait another two years before pursing membership intake again. Ok, really now. How long am I to wait? How many years? How many times must I put myself through this? Its hard for me not to become discouraged. I consider myself a focused individual. I've always supported Delta Sigma Theta. Everywhere I've gone, I've attended each chapter's various programs. I also have a long history of continuous community service. Not because I desire membership, but because I love participating in uplifting and helping my community. Even if this does not happen for me later in life. I will continue to love and support Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc.
May GOD continue to bless each of you!
