What is a Sorority?
A sorority is almost too deep and far-reaching to define on paper. It is more than a social group that gathers for parties. Its purpose is not to accumulate as many trophies as possible to show off to the public. The women in a sorority do not all look, dress, and act alike. The sorority and it members are not chosen a special elite class to which one has to wear a pin to belong.
The sorority is a tool for the growth and development of the individual. It may be compared to a miniature democratic society, which essentially teaches the principles of democracy. There is a place for everyone. The older, more experienced members are present to guide the new members into their own position. The group offers opportunities in every field so everyone can fit in.
Contrary to the belief of many people, a sorority does not strive for members who will conform in dress, interests, thoughts, and ideals. A Greek group pledges individuals because it thrives on the unique characters, ideals, and opinions of its members. There is a place for the girl who is interested in activities and also for the one who emphasizes scholarship. There is a place for the girl who is elected homecoming queen and also for the one who works hard on the float. It is only through these varied interests that a sorority benefits an individual. One receives an education in all phases of college life, or on a wider scope, all phases of society.
The members of a sorority are sisters sharing a strong bong of love and acceptance. Through this close relationship with others, a girl will reach a fuller development of her own character.
What is a sorority? It is the most worthwhile and rewarding group to which one could ever belong.
