I recently decided to join a sorority this semester and shocked a few people in doing so. I decided to go Greek this semester because I have tried countless times and just didn't find a sorority that I really liked or even felt at home in. I also had friends in Greek life that would talk about the various things they would do or the community service they would give and it sounded fun. I went to Round Robin at my school and finally found a sorority that I fit into. I found Alpha Sigma Tau and was instantly in love.

I chose to go Greek because I am a commuter and it is hard for me to make friends or even be a little social. I am a very anti-social person to begin with, so with that being said, I suck at making friends. I went Greek so that I could meet new people and to make everlasting friendships.

I also chose to go Greek because I want to get more involved with my community and didn't know how to go about that. The sorority that I chose does Habitat for Humanity, SafeNet, and a few others that would greatly impact the way that I look at the world and humankind. I wanted something that would not just impact myself, but others around me.

I chose Greek life also because I wanted to have fun, and what better way than making everlasting friendships and to do various activities. I don't know what is in store for me (nothing bad I hope), but I can not wait to see what will happen.

Honestly, I have always wanted to be in a sorority and now that I finally am, I am so excited for the journey that is ahead of me, for all the new people I will meet, and all the lives I may touch with the community service I will be doing.

I don't think it's about the parties or how it will look on a resume. It is about the people you meet you and how you can improve yourself and those people you surround yourself with.

I joined a sorority so that I could be apart of something bigger and I am so glad that I did. I am excited for the journey, the people I will meet, the things I will do and most importantly the friendships I will make. I chose Greek Life, maybe you will too.
