5 Reasons Why I Joined A Sorority

OK, guys here is the tea: I came into college very anti-greek life. It just really was not something I was interested in or something I wanted to spend my time on, but one organization changed my mind completely! So, here is why you should give it a chance!

1. Tons of new friends.

I love my friend group, but I really wanted to expand my friendships! Joining a sorority has allowed me to meet a ton of people who also really care about me.

2. Tons of service opportunities.

Through Greek Life, you are able to find out about more service opportunities so that you can really serve on or off campus and also help build your community service hours!

3. Tons of on-campus involvement.

If you want to get into grad schools, you need to be involved. Joining a sorority provides you with so many involvement opportunities! From philanthropy events to introducing you to more on-campus organizations, you will never be bored again!

4. Tons of academic help/success.

Almost all organizations have a minimum GPA requirement, and they will help you get there! If you are struggling, they will help you find a tutor. Also, more than likely you will find someone in your sorority is in your class and there you go you now have a study buddy to power through the semester with!

5. Tons of fun!!!

I have had the opportunity to meet so many people and also go to places I have never gone! We got to tour the Botanical Gardens with our moms which was absolutely amazing and we got to travel to Charlotte, NC for our formal! There is never a dull moment with Greek Life.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
