Blue Mountain is a very special place to me, and to everyone else who is here. One especially special thing about Blue Mountain is the multitudinous opportunities to socialize and come together with your fellow students and bond. One of those ways was just revealed to us Freshmen and Transfers through Rush Week.
Yes, I'm talking about Societies.
There are five Societies, two for guys and three for the ladies. Now, I have no idea anything about the male Societies (sorry guys!), but the girl societies all threw awesome parties for us newcomers- and for the oldies, let's be real- and I enjoyed every second I got to experience them. In chronological order of parties, we have the Eunomians, the Euzelians, and the Modenians. I could go into the history of every Society, and it's really interesting! But really, what I want to focus on is the Societies today. Right now.
The Eunomian Society's mascots are Raggedy Ann and Andy, their flower is the daisy, and their colors are gold and white. And what better color to represent these bright and sunshiny girls? They're loud. They're enthusiastic. Their chant says they "never get tired, never take a rest" and a statement couldn't be truer. With their barn dance and their loud personalities, they wore me out! But more than that, the Eunomians make you want to jump right in with the rest. They keep you dancing and laughing. Whether they're social butterflies or wallflowers, Eunomians are sunshiny and truly willing to help. It's no wonder their motto truly reflects who they are as a society "Quality."
The Euzealian sisterhood is strong and true. Their motto is "Culture, Poise, and Power" and their mascot is Winnie the Pooh. They have the calm and cool color- my favorite color- blue. This wonderful group of sisters are no strangers to friendship. If you seek out friendship in a Z, you're sure to find it with her. These girls have just as beautiful souls as their flower, the gardenia, is. Although they might not seem as loud as the Eunomians, the Euzealians are just as true friends. Their party was a fun and calm way to wind down after the nonstop movement of the Eunomian party. The easy friendship is ever true testament that always, "You got a friend in Z."
Last, but certainly not least, we have the Modenians. The Modenian color is red, their mascot is snoopy and their flower is the rose. The girls of the Modenian society stick true to their motto "Originality." The Modenian party was bumping with their chocolate. Fountain. And their sparklers. The girls were cool and excited. The few but mighty Modenians are truly unique in their own right. They're just as friendly as the other two Societies, and their emphasis is truly on celebrating the differences of each of them.
Alright ladies, we have a choice to make. Don't worry, it's not going to be one you can regret! All three Societies have so much to offer, you can't go wrong! The most important thing to do is choose where you feel the most comfortable. And if you want to be a Z, but your friend is going Mo, don't worry! You'll still have friends whatever you choose. Just remember to be yourself. I know it seems hard to decide between these three wonderful sisterhoods. Just remember, the sisterhood isn't just for your society sisters. We always have sisters in the others too! And sisters always have each other's backs!
