I'm Thankful for My Sorority

Friday, November 04, 2011

Did you ever play that game with your family at Thanksgiving? You know, the one where everyone goes around the table and says what they're thankful for? In keeping with the spirit of the holiday, we asked women why they're thankful for their sorority and their sisters. Here's what they said:

"My sorority gives me a family away from home. I go to school seven hours away from my home, and without my sisters I wouldn't have the support system that I do."- Jessica, Northern Michigan University

"My sisters are the most diverse group of women I've ever met. They all come from different backgrounds but are so accepting and fun to be around."- Norah, Drake University

"There's always someone I can call if I have a crisis or need to vent. If my sisters commit to helping me, I know they'll be there."- Carly, West Chester University

"I love how much being in a sorority has added to my college experience. It's a good feeling to know that I'm part of something bigger."- Leanne, California State University, Sacramento

"Even when we haven't seen each other for a while, we all just click as soon as we're back together. It's like we were never apart."- Heather, Cumberland University

"Being in a sorority has given me many opportunities to expand my growth in areas such as leadership, networking and time management, and it has blessed me with many wonderful sisters!"- Stephanie, Carroll University

These women show that sorority life truly has given them a lot to be thankful for. A sorority can add friends, fun and family to a college experience. What are you thankful for this holiday season?
