Sororities

At orientation, we all received a "Must Do at IU: A Bucket List for the True Hoosier" with a list of IU traditions, big and small, to experience before graduation. As my first year comes to an end (where did the time go?), let's look at some items I can cross off my bucket list.  Go on a late night...

Greek life is a great opportunity to be involved on any campus. You have a built-in support system through your sisters, and you have ample opportunities for leadership, philanthropy and community service. IU's Greek life is no exception. We have 21 amazing chapters on this campus, and the Greek...

At the end of last semester I was doing a little bit of reflecting during finals week. Why study for my neuroscience final when I could just not do anything? (And being even more procrastinative, I am just now writing this blog post.) I started thinking about just how much my life has changed in the...

What?! Absolutely not.  The truth is, Indiana University has the toughest rushing system as far as the ladies go.  That’s okay, it’s part of what makes us special and top notch.  While I LOVE all my best friends in sororities, you shouldn't feel like it is the only way to survive the social world of...

Recruitment is a very stressful time for everyone invloved, but I have to say, it's also very rewarding.   I rushed this year because I wanted to find a way to get more involved on campus, and also find a strong group of friends and sisters.  Being a first generation college student, and therefore a...

Hey everybody!  So, it's been awhile since my last blog. And that's because I have had so many great things happening this semester! It has kept me extremely busy, but its also made me really happy! I've noticed that keeping busy and involved have kept me on task and my grades are even raising! I'm...

Hey everybody! It's been a little while since my last blog. Things have been super busy as the semester rolls on, but it's been exciting! The topic of this blog is one I have been thinking about for a while now. I get asked all the time "What was your reason for going Greek" or "Why do you love it...

I carved this pumpkin (rather poorly) four years ago this past Halloween! I knew I was coming to IU and I was insanely excited about it, even if a lot of my friends stayed home to work or went to another, closer school! Finding these pictures brought back serious nostalgia and I thought I would...

At the beginning of this semester, I was hired as a Student Ambassador to write content for Freshmansupport.com, a website geared towards helping students like you learn more about prospective colleges. Over a two-week span, I spent over 20 hours researching and writing about IU. On this website,...

In my last post I talked a little bit about Indiana University Dance Marathon (IUDM). Part of being a dancer or committee member, or a part of IUDM is canning. Which means that we are the people holding the red Riley buckets asking you for money on Kirkwood. Many other organizations do this, I know...
