The other day I interviewed the ladies of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority Inc. I interviewed their Historian, because she’s in charge of community service and other events. Sigma Gamma Rho Historian is Tynisha Brown. During the interview I asked her 3 questions to get started.…
Why would I like to be a member of Phi Lambda Sigma?? “Over the past two and a half years, promotion of leadership, networking and personal development have been a huge part of my pharmacy school journey. I have challenged myself with tasks such as attending conferences, organizing events, managing a team and simply by challenging myself to escape the imaginary boundaries of my own cognizance. Each of these voluntary obligations have sharpened my leadership skills and broadened my network.…
To the distinguished women of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated; it is my esteemed privilege to submit this letter of membership recommendation for Miss Naiya Odom-Smith.

Personal development where I have the opportunity to be involved in a wide range of activities where I can use my talents and knowledge to contribute to the…
Growing up I was constantly reminded to do more than whats expected by many women in different time of my life. I often heard my teachers refer to each other sorrors and addressed jokes about the strange embroidered letters on their jackets. Being only 10 and curious, I wanted to know the significance and meaning of the strange letters and defending them was so important. The conversation grew broader than the letters. I was informed about Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc and the importance of taking risk, speaking up, sisterhood, and going beyond measure to ensure the needs of other were met.…
My interest for potentially becoming a part of the Psi Theta Omega Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. is based on the personal and professional development of its members and the social change that results in equality. I view Psi Theta Omega Chapter as a huge advocate for the metropolitan Orlando area when it comes to the community service and its involvement of its educational growth of its young ladies. These are a major focus that has sparked my interest in understanding what this Sorority does as a whole. I have always been an individual that loves serving the community being that I can make a change within someone’s life by helping them grow mentally and physically.…

Growing up, many of us have obtained some knowledge on greek-letter organizations somehow. Whether we have all seen movies about colleges that are fraternity and sorority based or through social media. They’ve given us a little insight on the college life and if you’re like me, these moves have gotten you inspired and excited for college. They’ve shown us the crazy parties, the popularity, the step battles, and the harsh hazing as well. Even though we see an abundance of what goes on in these organizations, these movies do not give us a full understanding of greek letter organizations.…
I am honored to be considered to be a part of the National Honor Society. In order to be a part of the society, I understand that one must demonstrate excellent leadership qualities. I believe I have these qualities that can inspire my peers to make the right decisions. As a girl scout for 10 years, my troop and I have done many things to help our community such as helping out at soup kitchens and repainting the cafeteria at our elementary school. As a girl scout, one of the initiatives that I am most proud of has been helping young girls discover their inner beauty through our take action project called “Mirror, Mirror on the Wall”.…
In Phi Sigma Pi, I was told that they had socials, scholarship events, fundraisers, and service projects that they have as certain requirements you have to attend a certain number during each semester or you will be…
Throughout my college career, I have had many memorable achievements and gained lots of knowledge on valuable lessons. Yet there are specific lessons and achievements that stand out. Last year, I had the privilege of being asked to join Gamma Beta Phi Honor Society at UCR, which recruits the top 20% of all undergraduate students. By joining and becoming actively involved with the organization, I was fortunate enough to be offered the position of Vice- President of the organization, which is the most meaningful achievement I have had so far.…
or any sorority for that matter, except for what I hear on my college campus, which are basically stigmas (good and bad) that are tied to each sorority. After months and months of my ears being flooded with “Zeta this, Gamma Rho that, AKA this, and Delta that,” and my friends telling me that I should pledge Delta because I’m very blunt and have an attitude, I literally thought the whole sorority (sisterhood) and fraternity (brotherhood) thing was stupid and childish. I told myself that I would never be apart of any sisterhood and I would be my own support, and my own organization. However, after continued pestering from my friends about how I should become a Delta because of my fitted Delta personality, I decided to do some research. The one thing that sold me on wanting to become a…
National Honor Society (NHS), a highly prestigious organization that runs nationwide. It is more than just an honors club. The National Honor Society recognizes students who show excellence in the areas of scholarship, leadership, service, and character. I believe that I possess these qualities, and will be able to contribute to the betterment of the community. The National Honor Society would give me a huge opportunity to reach out and give more to the society.…
I am interested in membership in Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., because of what Delta represents. To me Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. represents strong, educated black woman that are dedicated to improving their community. When I was a child I always said that I wanted to improve my community. As I grew up I saw how children from impoverished homes were not always exposed or given the opportunity to achieve a better life. That’s when I realized that we have to help our youth in order to see a change in our community.…
Sofa to Represent Our Sorority Throughout the multiple years that the Eta Upsilon Chapter of Sigma Sigma Sigma at Lynchburg College has been established; we have been in dire need of a new sofa. We initially received a donated sofa from our Alpha chapter at Longwood in 2007. However, as the years have gone by the sofa has aged unpleasantly: the material is slowly detaching itself, the springs are coming out of the bottom, there is no longer a cushion, and we have wooden boards preventing us from collapsing in. With our sofa being in such a terrible condition, I took it upon myself as Treasurer of Sigma and a sister living in the house, to not only search for a new sofa but also purchase one on behalf of the sorority. In addition, this not only…
