* A sorority is defined as a women's student organization that is formed chiefly for service and/or social
purposes. However, it offers much more than just membership. A sorority provides academic enhancement, friendship, development of leadership skills and the opportunity to serve the community. As a national organization, a sorority generates personal and professional growth through networking and participating in other activities well beyond your college years.*
* A sorority gives you the opportunity to make new friends who will be with you long after graduation. The women you meet during recruitment will be the ones who will be in your wedding, provide guidance when you are struggling, and share in your happiness for many years.*
* Many sororities have alumni who will share their experiences and help prepare you for life after graduation. Advisers and House Directors are alumni who may come from different undergraduate institutions but share a common bond nonetheless.*
* By seizing the opportunity to join a chapter, you will have the chance to share common experiences, challenge your thoughts and beliefs, learn from others, and thus create the basis for lifelong friendships.*
* Sororities have a foundation of values and standards known as the ritual. Through ritual, you will learn the basic concepts of friendship and values that will bring you closer to your brothers and sisters. This common bond will be with you for your life.*
*Joining a sorority is truly an opportunity to enhance your college experience. Yale Panhellenic Council hopes to see at Yale's Spring Recruitment for 2011! If you have any questions, please e-mail [email protected]. See you soon!*
