Why I chose Tri Delta
When I went through recruitment three years ago, I knew
Tri Delta was my home on day 1. You know that feeling when you fall in love?
Well, that is the exact feeling I felt when I walked into the Tri Delta house.
I chose Tri Delta because the girls I met were so genuinely nice and real. I
loved how honest and passionate the girls in Tri Delta were, and their strong
commitment to their philanthropy was admirable. I remember talking to all the
girls during recruitment and feeling completely comfortable and I felt like it
was okay to be myself. As I enter my senior year and my last recruitment, I
can’t help but reflect on these past 3 years. I am forever grateful for the
friendships I have made, opportunities I have been given, and memories that
will always hold a special place in my heart. Tri Delta has given me the
opportunity to grow as a person, as a leader, and as a friend.
My
sisters attentively hold me accountable and push me to be a better
version of myself, instead of asking me to be something that I am not. I
hope that every girl going through recruitment finds the same thing that I have
found in Tri Delta. My few words of advice for the girls going through this
recruitment are to stay positive. Everything
happens for a reason. When you get your bid card and you're running home, you definitely
won't be worried about what happened earlier in the week. I also want to encourage
you to have an open mind. It's so easy to have your heart set on one house; this
is such a common and easy mistake to make. Do not go into recruitment thinking,
"If I don't get this house, then I don't want any." There are awesome
girls in every house, so give them all a chance. People will always have their
own opinions of every house, but it's up to you to find out what each house
really has to offer. I truly believe that there is a house for everybody. Don't
let other people influence your decision. Your friends may not end up in the
same house as you, and that's okay. Everyone ends up exactly where they're
meant to be; do not feel pressured or pushed to morph yourself into somebody
you’re not. Wherever you decide to call home, make sure that it
is a place that you can see yourself proudly representing anywhere you go.
Ultimately, you may feel as if you’re choosing the sorority that you want, but
in all reality, the sorority chooses you as well. It
is so important to take into account the morals that you hold
yourself to, and base your decision on what you feel is best for
you. And last, but certainly not least, I want to wish you the best of
luck as you embark on the most wonderful four-year journey you’ll ever
experience!
Delta Love,
