Non Traditional Student

[Titchou]

If you were going to a commuter school or smaller local college I might say go for it. But at a traditional campus with a large Greek system, the odds are not going to be in your favor. I'll quote one of my collegiate pesidents (age 21 and talking about her chapter) when I was a Rush Adviser talking about a PNM of your age - "Why would she want to hang out with a bunch of hormone driven twits?" Out of the mouths of babes....

Ditto this. I am finding my Junior League to be very much like my sorority...sisterhood, philanthropy, very social. Follows the same parlimentarian procedures.

So does Beta Sigma Phi and Epsilon Sigma Alpha. They are community based sororities. Membership is by invitation, but it is a hell of a lot easier a process that NPC sorority recruitment. The members are of all ages. Time committment may be a little less strenuous on you too if you are a pre-med student.

Thanks everyone for all of your suggestions. I already do a ton of community service through my work (media) and on my own so I am looking for something a little more social. I adore meeting new people!! I'll definitely look into all the options suggested here!

Thanks again! :-)

Thanks KSUViolet

Remember that you can still have a great college experience if you are not involved in any GLO! At a school the size of U of A, I am sure there are TONS of clubs to choose from and get involved in! Get involved in something you are passionate about!
