Kappa Pi chapter of AOII
Well...I wasn't even going to pledge. Girls from another sorority used to "dorm storm" every night before formal rush, and I found them just plain annoying, so fake, and so not my thing. Then it turned out that my best friend lived on the AOII floor. And, so I got to know them, and they were really different. They were so real, and never pressured me about being in a sorority. They invited me to some of their parties, and they were just fun. And they all knew each other and seemed to genuinely enjoy being together. And then I found out that they had the highest GPA on campus for several years running.
So in the spring it came time for COBs and I went to the events. By the end of the first one, I was hooked and knew I wanted to pledge.
Now as I look back, I realize that I wouldn't be who I am or where I am today without those wonderful women. Through the years, I have become very involved with AOII on the national level. And even though I have met some exceptional women, there will always be a special place in my heart for my Kappa Pi sisters. It is because of the things they taught me that I continue to do what I do now. Even though our chapter is now closed, they still mean the world to me.
