Joining a sorority can be a difficult decision for some to make; while it is a major commitment here is why it is so worth it.
Learning opportunity.
Joining a sorority allows you the opportunity to meet 100 new women, and each is so different! You are able to constantly experience new things through new relationships. You can learn a lot about your sisters and about life through your sorority!
Leadership opportunity.
Within each chapter, and within fraternity and sorority life as a whole, there is ample leadership opportunity. There are ways for all members to get involved! You can become a committee chair or even the president!
Philanthropic opportunity.
One of the greatest opportunities given through each sorority is the opportunity to serve others. Each sorority at NC State has a philanthropy that it works with and helps raise money for. Getting out into the community for service is a great thing, and doing it with your sisters makes it that much more rewarding for everyone.
Professional network.
After graduation, and while in school, a sorority is a great way to begin to navigate the professional world. The connections you make throughout your chapter and throughout your sorority as a whole can help lead you to a career opportunity!
Part of something bigger.
Being in a sorority is being a part of something bigger than yourself. You are a part of your chapter, of your entire sisterhood, and of greek life in general. You are able to participate and contribute to longstanding traditions, and that is something truly special!
Genuine sisterhood.
The friendships you make may be what matters most in joining a sorority. These friendships are genuine and they provide a real support system while in college and after graduation! Your sisters are not only there to support you emotionally, but they also help to academically support you by holding each member accountable for a certain GPA. The love felt in the greek community is unlike any other.
