If you ask any woman who is apart of a sorority, she will tell you that there is an infinite number of reasons you should join too! Greek life has instilled many values in me, such as faith, wisdom, power, love, and hope. Even though the list is endless, here are some of my top reasons to join a sorority.
1. Sisterhood
Sisterhood is unbreakable. This is not something that can be fully explained to an individual who is not apart of a sisterhood, but I will try my best! Sisterhood is loving someone no matter what the situation, sticking by your sisters' sides through thick and thin, and sometimes it's just having someone to go to Taco Bell with!
2. Academics
It is often stereotyped that all sorority girls do drink and party. This is not true at all. We are held to a standard when it comes to academics. We must keep a high GPA and are required to log study hours each week.
3. Family
The whole Greek community is a giant family. They are the only people who will ever understand the ties that bind you to your letters. Their doors are always open when life gets hard and they will always have your back.
4. Leadership
Greek Life members often seek out leadership roles within their chapter as well as other organizations on and off campus. This looks great on a resume after graduation and can help you land that dream job.
5. Professionalism
Greek Life teaches you many things, such as professional dress, running a meeting, and how to eat at a business dinner.
6. There is always someone there for you
No matter what time of day it is, there is always a sister who will go to the library, Walmart, have a study date, or just sit around and talk. Sisters are the ultimate gift!
7. Endless Clothing
Let’s not forget that when you move into the chapter house that there are 40 other closets for you to raid and somebody to help you when you don't know what to wear. You will never have to go shopping again!
8. Homecoming Week
Homecoming Week is the single best week when you join a sorority. It is filled with games, parades, and tailgating!
Joining Sigma Sigma Sigma is honestly the best thing I have ever done with my life! I have become a strong and outgoing woman with sisters who would go to the ends of the Earth with me. I have made so many friends within my sorority and other sororities and fraternities. Greek life was the best decision I have ever made in my life and it can change your life too!
