You're more than welcome! I think every one of us wanted to be "just like Holly", and I was positively on Cloud Nine when she gave me a rec!! If you google her, she has a pretty impressive resume!

I was at a tanning salon here in Columbus (I'm an Ohio State Theta), and was waiting for one of my other sisters to get out of her bed. I was wearing my lettered sweatshirt. Another girl walked past me, saw my letters and stopped. Turns out, she was was a Theta at Cornell... small world!

I am a paramedic. The other day we got a call for a 53 year old lady having chest pains. When I knelt down to take her blood pressure, she noticed my bracelet with Kappa Alpha Theta on it and said she was a Theta too! Her daughter was also a Theta, and she was standing in the room as well! It was soooooo exiting. I gave her the star treatment in the ambulance and as soon as I got all the information for my report, we talked about our Theta experiences all the way to the hospital!

It made my day! We see so much chaos out here everyday, and to walk into a home and find not one but TWO Thetas was incredible!

I hope her chest pains turned out to be a fluke and nothing serious

I was at a Junior League meeting recently and one of the women, Kerri, stopped me and asked where I was a Theta. I wasn't wearing letters or anything, but since we have a few Theta Alums in Junior League so I thought that was how she knew. Turns out she Googled our Alumnae Chapter because she wanted to get more involved and she saw my name on the Board roster.

She & I actually work together, but in different departments, and she had never mentioned being a Theta. I was so excited. She went to Univ of Arizona and I think both her Mom & sister were Thetas there! So her new daughter could be a triple legacy!

Bonus - she plans to get more involved with our Alumnae Chapter! Go THETA!!

ps. I got involved with Junior League due to the Thetas I know who are members. In fact the Admissions Chair the season I joined is a Theta in our Alumnae Chapter. I was Girl Scout from age 5 thru 13 and I think that sororities, Girl Scouts, and Junior League all complement each other! Think someone had a similar post about that here!

OKAY!!! I have ANOTHER Theta experience!!! My friend and I were in the mall yesterday, and walking by the Dippin Dots counter I saw a lady with a bid day tshirt on. I almost lost my balance when I noticed it was a THETA BID DAY TSHIRT!!! So of course my knees got weak and I was having trouble piecing a sentence together, but I walked over to her and about scared her half to death. I almost screamed "OMG YOURE A THETA?!?!?!?" I finally got around to saying "I'M A THETA TOOOOOO!!!" It was so cool. Turns out she was a brand spankin new Theta from Ole Miss.

YET ANOTHER Theta experience...about two hours ago, I went to check my mail and a girl and guy walked by and the girl had a Theta shirt on. I know I about scared her to death, too, but I can't contain myself when I see another Theta. She said she had just moved into the apartment complex about a week ago and we've already got plans to go out this weekend!!! Sooooooooo exiting!

I was at Bed, bath, & Beyond back in February registering for my wedding. We were at the front desk waiting for someone to come back from the registry dept and I'm wearing a Theta pullover jacket. This lady came up to me and said she was a Theta too from UK's chapter. So we just started talking like we knew each other. I got her reinterested in joining the alumnae chapter again too heh heh

Add one more.
Back in the day, when SAE was there and a Great house with Great Brothers, we had Great Little Sisters from the Theta's!.

And one of them was from MN.........LOL

I was new in Cincinnati, with a new job. Our boss had a big cookout and invited everyone to come, including familes. Well, I struck up a conversation with the wife of a co-worker. We were talking about college, and she said "You were Greek, weren't you?" I said yeah, and when I replied that I was a Theta, she grinned and said "I knew it! Me too!" (she pledged at UK). It was pretty cool. I've also seen Theta's from Ohio State and Ohio Weslyan at Cedar Point and have struck up convo's with them as well.
