A Thank You Letter To My Mentors

Dear Mentors,

I want to thank you for giving me advice, believing in me, and just being you. Coming into college, I was shy but motivated to learn and grow. I've changed a lot these past two years and I have you to thank for that.

You taught me to go after what I want. I set goals and accomplished them. This was all because I knew how hard you worked and I looked up to you. I strove to be like you and get my name out there. Thank you for being a great role model.

You introduced me to new organizations and people. Through you, I started my first internship, found meetups to attend, and met some pretty inspiring people. Thinking about how much I would have missed out on if I hadn't been paired up with you is why I am so thankful I did get you as a mentor.

You gave the best advice. Whether this advice was professional or personal, I valued it. I took it into my other internships and school-life. Thank you for teaching me how to be confident in my field.

The best part is you believed in me. Like I said, I'm a completely different person than I was coming into college and even a year ago. You saw something in me and gave me opportunities to learn and network.

So I thank you for taking your time to mentor me,

Your Mentee

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

Sorority
Rebekah Lee

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.
