An Open Letter Of Love For The Alpha Omicron Pi Sisterhood

Founders Day was January 2, and I have so many words to describe my love for this sisterhood.

An Open Letter Of Love For The Alpha Omicron Pi Sisterhood
Hallie Cunningham

Dear Stella, Jessie, Helen and Elizabeth,

I never pictured myself becoming a member of a Greek organization. I signed up for recruitment with my friends because I thought it would be something fun to do. Little did I know, I would find a home within my chapter. You created this organization in 1897 with an everlasting bond and it changed the lives of thousands of women across the world. I am forever indebted to you because I have never felt more loved than I do when I walk into our house.

I have been changed for good because of Alpha Omicron Pi. I was welcomed into a loving chapter of over eighty women, giving me the sisters my parents never did. I can rely on these women for anything I may need, even if it is just a comment on my Instagram post. Together we are able to influence positive change within our community through philanthropy events and other activities. I have never seen a more dedicated group of people than my sisters at our philanthropy events. I am inspired every single day by these women and their dedication to change the world, one child at a time.

Alpha Omicron Pi has taught me to inspire ambition. I strive to help others and inspire them with the love I have for my chapter. I have learned how to be a better student, a better friend, and a better leader. Being in a sorority gives you the opportunity to improve yourself in all aspects. Through leadership roles, or just simply by being present, you are always given a chance to create a beneficial situation for yourself. Having an environment of women who love and support you is so important. Knowing you have people all across the country who hold the same values dear is irreplaceable.

We all are meant to be sisters and you made that possible. So, thank you for creating this sisterhood. I am so grateful for every sister you have given me and I wear my letters with the most pride and alpha love in my heart.

Love,

Your Sister

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
