2. Eta Epsilon
3. collegian
4. pride leader, recording secretary, current EVP

6. looking at the bid list this year and realizing that my rush baby, who I talked to throughout all of recruitment and fell in love with, had just joined ADPi! She is now my little diamond and I couldn't be happier!

1) California State University, Chico
2) Eta Rho
3) Alumna for many, many years
I pledged in 1990 - actually, I was in the guinea pig Alpha Class. We were one of six in the nation. (Am I too old to be on the this board ?)
4) I was Rush Education VP or whatever we called it then
5) I fell in love with ADPi because the girls I met were real people, and not characatures of sorority girls.
6) I have so many favorite memories that it's hard to chose one. I pledged when I was a 17 year old freshman who had no idea what she was in for. I spent five years in the chapter in college, then assisted with Rush for a few years after that. I'm now a member of the Washington DC Alumni Association. I guess I am living proof that ADPi is not something that you do, it's something that you are for a lifetime.

5) My boyfriend at the time was neighbors to some ADPi's that I thougt they were great! I felt most comfortable there and absolutely loved the girl that rushed me.
6) I have so many favorite memories that I could even begin. I would have to say that the whole 3 years was pretty much the best time of my life.

2. Gamma Upsilon!!
3. Collegian
4. None yet
5. I joined ADPi because I was comfortable with them from the moment I first stepped foot in the house (even though I didn't even know anyone in the house!). I loved how this house stood out from the rest as down to earth, and how they made me laugh and always made me feel welcome. If I could go back, I would choose ADPi all over again
6. I have so many great memories it's so hard to pick just one. I think something I will never forget was our Diamond Days b/c it was all so much fun! I will also never forget my first trip to the Ronald McDonald house. I was an Alpha then and was making the 7-hour trip in a car full of Deltas I didn't know, but I had the most fun time getting to know them so well on the way over there and during the entire weekend

6.Getting lost in some small town outside of Lincoln while on a Halloween ghost hunt with one of the frats in Lincoln. We drove around for about 2 hours looking for an abandoned school house, which ended up not being there anyways...good times...good times!

6. My favorite memory was last day of Initiation and I still harass my Diamond Sister (NAUADPi) for running me into the wall. It was funny. I also cut my waist length hair to my chin and didn't tell anyone until they saw me. i donated my hair to locks of love.

I rushed because I wanted to meet people, coming from such a small town I wasn't used to be somewhere and not knowing anyone. This soon changed after I joined ADPI. I met so many people and made close friends with many of my sisters. From that point on, I felt liked I finally belonged at Chico State.

I have too many memories to just choose one. But all I know is that I will never ever forget them!

5. I never made it back to Waco for formal recruitment in January 2000 although I had gone through the first round in November. I was convinced I was going to be a Chi Omega and I hardly even paid attention at the ADPi party. When I got back to school my roomate had in fact gone Chi O and I stayed out of the dorm as much as possible because there was red and yellow EVERYWHERE in our room and it made me sad. One day she came to me and said that ADPi was holding open recruitment activities and I should go check it out with her. At the time, and to this day, our chapter is quite small and frequently open recruits. They had sought Panhellenic help and girls from other sorority pledge classes were bringing their non afiliated friends. So I went and fell in love with it. I have never looked back.

6. In late February of 2003, the Stacy Riddel Forum was finally opened. We do not have greek houses at Baylor but a Panhellenic building was built for each of the 9 sororities, with equal sized suites with kitchen, bathroom, 2 storage closets, and a caterer's entrance. Since our chapter is the smallest, it was a financial burden, but it was to everyone else too, so it was ok. Well, we did the minimal upgrades that everyone else did and then put the rest of our money into furniture and cool stuff to fix the room up with. January had been a rough month since we had just come away from another disappointing formal recruitment so we were all pretty tired and discouraged. (I bet you're wondering how this becomes my favorite memory) Well, Panhellenic held a dedication of the building and an open house for alum, parents, and collegiates to attend. Our room was (and still is of course) by far the absolute best. We have been plagued for years by rumors that our chapter was going under (byother sororities, one in particular that I wont' name. PM me if you want to know the real identity) So to see them walk out of our room shaking their heads with their jaw dropped, and to hear them talk until the day I graduated about how our suite was the best, made me the proudest I've ever been to be an ADPi. Many people couldn't believe that we had "come up with" something that good. they said, they must have some awesome alum and I was like heck yea we do. So anyway, that was pretty poopin awesome to be on top of something you know? I LOVE ADPI!!!!

4. I am only a sophmore (i pledged last spring) i haven't that many chances to hold a position... At the moment i am Sigma Rho Chi... hoping to help other young women see what greek life is all about... but I will be our Chapter's EVP starting this spring...

5. I was a pick up recruitment pledge (COB girl)... late bloomer, i say!! I just wanted to get to know some people and stop just sitting in my room, all the time, alone. (I was extremely shy first semester!!) These girls just instantly took me under their wing and made me part of the ADPi family! I am so proud to be able to say that i am a part of such a loving and caring group of women!!

6. Probably when my diamond sister was lavaliered.... it was a big deal...her boyfriend sang a song on a famous, rustic, bridge on campus... i had no idea what was going on at the moment...because i had just been initiated...but when i think back...it was majorly special!! Can't wait until her pinning ceremony!!!

ADDITION: Another big memory for me is my recent lavaliering by my DTD boyfriend. Wow it was great! At niagra falls with just the two of us (yes, i would have liked to share it with my sisters, but being Rho Chi that was hard)

More great memories are sure to come...hehe!!!

5. I was skeptical about joining a sorority but decided to go through recruitment just to see what it was about. The minute I walked into the chapter room I instantly felt at home. There wasn't a doubt in my mind that I was meant to be an ADPi.

6. Too many good memories to tell!

5. Why you joined ADPi
On the very first day of school my freshman year I went to my Physical Geography class. It was a huge auditorium full of strangers. I took a seat at random and sat next to a young woman. She took out her pen to take notes, and I noticed it had Greek letters. We struck up a conversation and several years later, we share the letters on that pen and she is one of my very best friends. From the moment I met Lisa to the moment I went through formal recruitment that following year, I knew I had met a group of unique, special and amazing women at Zeta Omega, and that has only carried over in my life as an alumna, meeting members from all over the world.

6. Favorite ADPi memory
Too many to keep track!!!
