What was your opinion on Greek Life before you joined your sorority? I thought Greek Life was very fake. The girls seemed to want to be trophy wives, etc. The picture I got was a lot of drinking, hazing, and mean girls. What made you decide to join a sorority? Part of me had always wondered if the stereotype was true, and a lot of my friends from high school were now sorority women.

It’s also true, though, that our alumna experience is decades longer than the four years we were collegians. The majority of our Kappa membership is as alumnae. If we truly believe that a Kappa experience lasts a lifetime, it begs the question, can a woman join Kappa at any point in her lifetime?
