Today is the day, The day we welcome home our new member class! All of your hard work has led to this moment. Your sleepless nights and many cups of coffee will all be worth it when our new members take the stage, announce to the Panhellenic community that they are going Alpha Sigma Alpha and jump off the stage into our arms. I have watched from a distance and you all looked so beautiful during all of the rounds and I am so proud to call you ladies my sisters.
As I prepare to watch you welcome home our new members, I can't help but look back at all the memories I have made in the past year. From getting late night at Kleiner after Battle of the Valley Girls practice to sitting in Kirkoff having conversations about everything and anything, I have fallen in love with our sisterhood, just like our new member class is about to. For me, it was not the t-shirt or the bid day party that made me fall in love with our sisterhood, it was you, The women of our chapter. You accepted me when no one else would. You took me in when others were pushing me away. You loved me when I didn't love myself. You allowed me to be apart of something that is bigger than myself. I went through recruitment because I was alone on campus but now I have 100 plus sister that always greet me with a smile. I can't wait to watch our new member class grow to love our chapter in the same way all of us have.
As I watch bid day from a far, I just want you all know how proud I am of you, how much I love you, and how much I miss you. You guys are my safe place and I can't wait to be back with you all to make more memories and fall even more in love with our sisterhood! Congratulations on a successful recruitment!!!
ALAM,
Your sister away from home
