I don't know if I want to drop before I week or not. At the beginning I used to be the one that would convince my pledge sisters not to drop, but now I don't feel the "sisterhood" or anything. I feel like no one cares and since everyone has their cliques in my pledge class, I'm the one sister people go to to party, not for friendship or anything. I'm not sure if I want to stay or not... But being in my sorority has created friendships with the fraternity boys, not so much my sisters :(

of course i am going to encourage you to stay the course! not everything is perfect in a sorority from day 1. you will have different experiences along the way… good times and bad times. just like real life!

maybe some of the young girls in your pledge class are self absorbed or a little shallow, but there are all types in every group. it’s up to you to associate with the sisters you feel value you sincerely, and are of the highest caliber. there are many sisters beyond your pledge class. once you are initiated, it is much easier to assimilate into the larger group. 

i encourage you to think LONG TERM. look past the silliness of today and think about all you can give to your chapter over the next 4 years. by focusing on giving, you will get so much more in return. recapture your chapter pride, think about all you can offer as an active and all the benefits of alumnae membership as well.

ask not what your chapter can do for you ~ but what you can do for your chapter!! xoxo 

Hey! I'm a new member and I'm considering running for Pledge Class President. I was wondering if you had any advice or tips? Thanks!

welcome to greek life!!

i of course say “go for it”! it would be a fabulous opportunity to meet more sisters, show your leadership abilities, enrich your pledge period, etc.. just make sure you can balance your time between your new chapter, new social life and your academics. if you can swing it, you have nothing to loose by running for office and hopefully serving!

  • be sincere
  • be enthusiastic
  • be positive
  • be level headed
  • show your talent for leadership
  • gracefully accept the outcome of the vote either way
