Were you intiated as an alum through the chapter b/c your a grad student or did they initiate you as an active member even though you're a grad student. If they initiate grad students-that hella cool! I think more groups should do that. I mean it's hopeless for me, but I think grad students should be able to rush and pledge and be a part of a chapter like everyone else. At least you know the grad students are gonna have good grades!!!

I'm a grad student. I was recently initiated into Phi Sigma Sigma Iota Gamma Chapter (we rock!!!)
Phi Sig is one of the only NPC organizations that initiates graduate students into its collegiate chapters.
It's a really great experience. As you said, some of us were unable to experience Greek life as undergrads for various reasons and our lives are sometimes a little more "complicated" for lack of a better word. 
Not only am a graduate student, I am a returning student (I'm the old lady of the group), I have a full time job and a husband.
Phi Sig is important to me so I make the time. There are many days when I'm so exhausted that I can hardly see straight. But the sorority picks me up and I'm ready to go.
My sisters are really wonderful.
I encourage anyone who wants to be part of Greek Life regardless of age or education level to just do it. You will not regret it.
As a graduate student I think I set an example for my younger undergrad students. It shows them that they can still be part of the sorority and be active.
I hope this helps. Go for it. Start that group. If there are Phi Sigs at your school, check us out.
