your GLO - ALPHA OMICRON PI
-how long you've been a member - INITIATED IN 1993
-how active an alum you've been - I'D SAY VERY - I HAVE SERVED IN VARIOUS ADVISING ROLLS FOR OUR COLLEGE CHAPTERS INCLUDING A SHORT STINT AS THE ENTIRE ADVISORY COUNCIL -
ON AN INTERNATIONAL LEVEL - I HAVE SERVED AS A COLLEGIATE RECRUITMENT NETWORK SPECIALIST, A COLLEGIATE NETWORK SPECIALIST AND A COLONY DEVELOPMENT NETWORK SPECIALIST. I HAVE GIVEN PRESENTATIONS AT OUR LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE (OUR "GATHERING" DURING NON-CONVENTION YEARS!). I HAVE HELPED COLONIZE A NEW COLLEGE CHAPTER.
ON AN ALULM CHAPTER BASIS, I HAVE SERVED AS PANHELLENIC DELEGATE AND VP.
-why you come to GC - I LOVE CATCHING UP ON WHAT'S GOING ON, GETTING IDEAS AND LEARNING ABOUT OTHER GLO'S AND AOII CHAPTERS.
-what you still enjoy about your GLO/why you're active - I LOVE THE SISTERS I MEET AND THE STORIES WE SHARE. I LOVE THE "LIGHT" I SEE IN A NEW MEMBERS EYE WHEN THEY EXPERIENCE RITUAL FOR THE FIRST TIME OR WHEN THEY "FEEL" RITUAL FOR THE FIRST TIME. I LOVE THE EXCITEMENT THAT I GET FROM WORKING WITH THE COLLEGIANS AND I LOVE THE HISTORY I GET FROM WORKING WITH THOSE OLDER THAN ME. I LOVE LEARNING HOW SO-AND-SO CHAPTER DOES SOMETHING A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN I DO. I LOVE RITUAL AND LEARNING EACH TIME I EXPERIENCE IT. I AM STILL ACTIVE BECAUSE THAT IS THE OATH I MADE TO AOII OVER 10 YEARS AGO AND I GET SO MUCH MORE BACK THAN I EVER PUT INTO IT.
-anything else you care to share - FOR THE COLLEGIANS, KEEP ACTIVE AFTER YOU GRADUATE... AND IF IT TAKES A WHILE TO FIND YOUR NICHE IN THE ALUM WORLD - DON'T WORRY TAKE YOUR TIME AND STICK TO IT - IT'S BETTER THAN YOU CAN IMAGINE.
TO THE ALUMS - IF YOU'RE NOT ACTIVE GET ACTIVE - FIND YOUR NICHE TOO, MAYBE ITS WITH AN LOCAL ALUM CHAPTER, OR MAYBE ITS WITH A LOCAL COLLEGIATE CHAPTER OR JUST MAYBE YOU'RE CRAZY LIKE A LOT OF US AND ITS BOTH!! BUT BELIEVE ME - IT'S BETTER THAN YOU CAN IMAGINE.
