A Love Letter To My Sorority Sisters, As Told By Gossip Girl

Sorority Sister here! Your one and only source into the fantastic lives of your University panhellenic chapters. Who am I? That's a secret I'll never tell...

I'm just kidding, we all know my name is at the bottom of the screen. Here's to the sorority sisters who we love so dearly, and who we would all count as the Blair to our Serena (or vice versa).


Dear Sweet Sisters,

Thank you for making our sorority feel like home from day one. They say a home is not a place, but the people in it. You all truly are the definition of that quote.

Thank you for putting a smile on my face when I’m not having the best day. Thank you for all the random hugs and sweet smiles. Thank you for giving everyone a spot, and thank you for recognizing that everyone is unique. Thank you for being so supportive of everything that I do. Thank you for celebrating me when I achieve even the smallest things and thank you for dropping whatever you’re doing to comfort me when I fail.

Thank you for inspiring me each day to be a better person and a better sister. Thank you for challenging the stereotypes, and for standing up for everyone in not just our chapter, but every Panhellenic chapter. Thank you for loving me when I’m in a grumpy mood, for crying with me when I’m upset, and for laughing with me when I do something extremely embarrassing.

Thank you for staying up to watch movies with me, even ones that you wouldn’t consider your ‘genre.’ Thank you for giving me rides when I don’t have a car and thank you for offering to walk me home when it’s late at night. Thank you for critiquing the text I sent to my crush that asked him to the next date event, and thank you for telling me I can do better when I find out that he’s not interested in being more than friends.

Thank you for complaining about the rain one second, and then dancing in it with me the next. Thank you for the car rides with the windows down, screaming Hannah Montana songs out the window. Thank you for turning anyone’s day upside down, for the random Starbucks runs late at night, and for the study breaks that turn out to be longer than actual studying. Thank you for the high fives after getting a great grade on a test, and the ice cream runs for when I don’t do as well.

Thank you for looking out for me. Thank you for all of the advice, and all of the ‘it’s going to be okay’s'. Thank you for listening to me when I need to talk, and for telling me to hush when I’m stressed. Thank you for letting me borrow your favorite shorts, and for forgiving me when I give them back a year later.

Thank you for telling me how capable I am of anything I dream of doing. Thank you for caring. Thank you for being kind. Thank you for being supportive. Thank you for loving me.


Thank you for being you.

You know I love you...

XOXO,

A grateful sister

As college students, we are all familiar with the horror show that is course registration week. Whether you are an incoming freshman or selecting classes for your last semester, I am certain that you can relate to how traumatic this can be.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

Bonus points if it is more than two.

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

As an English Major in college, I have a lot of writing and especially creative writing pieces that I work on throughout the semester and sometimes, I'll find it hard to get the motivation to type a few pages and the thought process that goes behind it. These are eleven thoughts that I have as a writer while writing my stories.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
