"What Sorority Girls Do"

 

This picture is a perfect example of how differently people can perceive any sport, job, culture, greek affiliation, etc. Pictures like these can either educate people (like the last two pictures), but it mostly just reinforces people's preexisting thoughts on sorority life. As I've stated in my first blog post regarding Alexander Vervloet's article, being in a sorority or being apart of the greek community is so much more than "buying you friends", "partying", "being a cult like group"... the list goes on and on. What the fifth picture is portraying (2nd row, middle picture) is a sorority winning a game/championship at an inter-mural competition against another sorority, this is a way for greek life to interact with one another and have a friendly competition between everyone. The last picture is truly how my sorority acts around each other, not only with sisters but with everyone. We don't exclude anyone from being our friends, we're not perfect, and we definitely know when to ask for help when we need it. We're just a group of close friends/sisters, that share a common interest and can be ourselves around each other.

This is a picture of some of my sorority sisters and i at one of our volleyball IM's last semster! We're all there to not only cheer on our team but we're also there for support and to make sure everyone is having a good time, because IM's are just one of the many fun things that you get to be apart of when being in a sorority.

 

This photo was taken during our Spring recruitment 2013, how you see our table set up is how most sororities/fraternities decorate their tables. It's a inviting environment where you hope to make new connections with everyone in your community.
