NPHC BGLOers: Why Did you Join?

[Jody]

My father, in an effort to ensure I attened an HBCU, took me to visit several of his friend-women, that had attended HBCU's. What I noticed was all the AKA's had big houses, nice cars and good jobs.

It sounds shallow but I wanted the same thing!!!!

I joined because I am a legacy of at least 4 generations. I really did not look at other Sororities, because I actually love my Soror Mother's and Soror Grandmother's Sorority.

I joined Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. when she did not have a "legacy clause"... So actually, when I was accepted into the ivy leaf pledge club, I did not tell my parents and they did not know until mid-pledge season and my Soror Mom found out, then came down to see me in college while pledging. Needless to say, what she determined was sheer pride.
