Pi Phi: So Much More Than the Chill Sorority

Pi Phi: So Much More Than the Chill Sorority
Facebook / Pi Beta Phi at LSU

You may have heard our stereotype, "Get high with Pi Phi," but as much as we take offense to this false rumor, we are able to prove people wrong in all the good things we do and our involvement with LSU and other organizations.

The typical stoner, so to claim, is a lazy burn out who does not care. Pi Phi may be the chillest sorority on the row, meaning that our girls are down to earth and do not necessarily care about any rankings between other houses. We simply do not compare ourselves to others and do not harp on being better than everyone else; we just try to be ourselves and be the best that we can be and hope that people like us. 

This year a Pi Beta Phi won Miss LSU and another one of my sisters received first runner-up. First and second place? Hell yeah, we're beautiful. Another one of our girls is now on Homecoming Court; that's a big deal. We have a Tiger Girl, Golden Girl, and a Saintsation. Pi Phi is represented in every college on LSU's campus and we are involved in Student Government, multiple honors societies (Order of Omega and Rho Lambda), and Ambassadors of LSU. 

Obviously, we are not lazy. We are just as motivated as any other sorority. Jordan Berry, Pi Phi's Vice President of Membership Development, says, "What has always bothered me is that everyone refers to us as the chill sorority. We just care more about the important things like being together and having a fun time if you ask me." She also told me that Pi Phi's friendships are like no one else's. We have the best and most genuine friendships and looking back on my personal experiences, I completely agree. 

It did not take me long to find my place in Pi Phi and as a new member I was welcomed with open arms. The friends I have made in Pi Phi will be with me forever. They are the people I am most compatible with; we all fell in love with Pi Phi for the same reasons. This sorority will always have a special place in my heart just like any other girl feels about her own house. 

So let's not judge, let's spread that love!

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
