5 Reasons Why I Love My Sorority
Taryn Dunlavey

1. I have become more extroverted

I have always been a complete introvert, but going through the rush process pushed me out of my comfort zone and forced me to talk to so many people. This continued after I was in my sorority. We talk to so many people both in and out of campus, and it has allowed me to build up my social skills and calm my nerves about public speaking

2. I am more involved

My sorority is diverse in every way. Our women are involved in so many clubs and activities on campus, I am always learning something new from them. This has allowed me to explore many new opportunities that I would not have found on my own. I am also more involved within the Bethlehem community through our philanthropy and service events.

3. There's always someone to lean on

No matter what I am going through, I always have at least one sister I can go to that can comfort me. I never realized how much of a support system that a sorority could provide.

4. I'm always learning something new

Because my sisters are so diverse and involved, they are constantly teaching me things I never knew. I have sisters who have shown me basic coding skills, sisters who have taught me statistics (which I still stink at, but still), and sisters who have just taught me how to relax.

5. I've met amazing women and developed lifelong friendships

My big sister and I have already agreed to be each other's bridesmaids at our future weddings. Clearly, I've made connections that will last me a lifetime :)

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer.
