Greek life has seriously gotten me involved in so many things. I volunteer more, I do better in my classes, and literally all of my friends are Greeks. So naturally, I was extremely excited for sorority recruitment. Not only am I excited to see new members in our chapter, but I also have the privilege to be on PanHellenic. PanHellenic is an organization that is made up of an unbiased board of sorority members that each chapter elects. We basically are there to support potential new members through the recruitment process and help them to make an unbiased decision. What I didn't know about PanHellenic was how absolutely amazing it is.
Part of being on PanHellenic is disaffiliating with your sorority. So, since about May I have not been able to wear my letters or tell anyone what sorority I am in; and honestly, it has been so hard. I cannot wait to put on my letters and scream what sorority I am from. But, on the other hand, it has been so worth it.
The incredible energy that comes flooding in the recruitment room every day from the potential new members has had me on an energy high. I love seeing all of their sunshiney faces coming back from each sororities parties and I love that they are all so excited to find out what sorority we are in at the end of the week. I almost can't even put into words the incredible feeling it is to help all of these girls join a sorority and find their home.
Seeing girls so interested in the sororities that we all spend so much time with is so touching because it makes me feel like everything we have all worked so hard for is being accomplished. At the end of the day we want Greek life to grow, and there is no better way to see that happen than being on PanHellenic. So with that, shout out to my PanHellenic homies. Love you for life.
