Anywho, AOII helped me realize my full potential, both as an officer and as a person. Close sisters have helped me realize who I am as a person. AOII gave me so many opportunities that will benefit me in all types of events, jobs, and community service.
Next question: if you could pick any school to have an AOII chapter, which one would it be?

That was Peg Crawford! You should hear her tell the story...sooo funny!

Alpha Delta (Bama), Nu Omicron (Vandy), Gamma Omicron (UF), Lambda Sigma (UGA), Lambda Tau (ULM), Kappa Omicron (Rhodes) (and of course my own chapter Nu Beta-Ole Miss)
Some were for chapter visits with my volunteer position and some were just for fun!
I hope to get to visit some more with my volunteer position!
Who is your favorite Founder and why?

Elizabeth Heywood Wyman because every single time I do the "Which Founder Are You" activity (I was New Member Educator for a year, then add in all the new member lessons I've been to) I end up with her. Plus, she was International President when there was expansion into Canada.
Question: Did your chapter have housing? If it did, did you live in it?

Lambda Tau had a dorm that was shared with the other three chapters on campus when I was in school. (It burned down a year after I graduated. ) I lived there for three and a half years and had such a great time. My scholarship covered room and board, so it payed for me to live with my sisters!
What does your badge look like?

I have, and I want to go back and document the badges on the vault!
How long have you been an AOII?

I was initiated in March 2009! So far it's been two of the most amazing years of my life
What was your favourite officer position in AOII (could be either collegian or alumna years)/What was one position you would have liked to try?

I really enjoyed being t-shirt chairman as a collegian. I of course love my volunteer position as a network specialist-recruitment. As a collegian I think I would have liked to be NME or VPE.
Does your chapter (either alumnae or collegiate) have a Founders' Day Celebration? If so what do you do to honor our Founders?

My collegiate chapter has founders day every April (since school is out from Thanksgiving until January, we miss both traditional founders days).
All initiated members of the chapter are invited back and usually there is a brunch and ritual on Saturday as well as a dinner then night before. Unfortunately since I live 6+ hours away, I haven't attended for 13 years, but one of these days I want to go back!
How many stuffed Panda bears do you currently own?

Three, but one is at my mom's house in Baton Rouge. It's massive. My Big Sis gave it to me during Big Sis/Lil Sis week so I can't get rid of it!
Are you an active alum (or if a collegian will you be an active alum)?

Very active, currently serving as a Network Specialist-Recruitment and Foundation Ambassador along with being an alumnae chapter and Life Loyal member.
If you could design a new pearl and ruby style badge, what would it look like?
