Does your chapter have housing? If your chapter has a facility that allows for members to live in, then I would highly encourage you to do so as soon as you are able. Living in the facility with other chapter members is a great way to bond and get to know other members in the chapter better. Many activities are also planned on the fly/last minute and living in the chapter facility helps you to be a part of that and not get left out. I would also encourage you to hang out here if you can between classes/when you have free time.

As a new member, I was a commuter. I had to put in extra effort to meet and get to know members of the chapter. I did that by going above & beyond what was required and hanging out on the chapter floor between & after classes. I got involved in an event we participated in called, AOII Lip Sync which required multiple practices per week to learn the routines and provided for an extra bonding experience with both my pledge class and older members. Intramural sports is another way to get involved & bond with both new & older members. If you dont play sports, show up and cheer for your sisters! They will appreciate it!

Dont be afraid to ask people to go out to eat with you, even if it just fast food or the campus cafeteria. Invite people to go shopping (I did this with several pledge class members my first semester and my big the following semesters to shop for different outfits we needed for different things). Does your chapter have a formal? Invite people to go dress shopping with you. Friendships & sisterhood is not instant. It forms over time and takes effort.
