The Sisterhood Talk

What makes a sorority great? Is it the community service initiatives, programming efforts, step/stroll championship wins, academic and professional success, OR is it the SISTERHOOD?

You can ask any Greek and they will all give you different reasons why they joined their organization, but if you ask me, I was looking for SISTERHOOD. Yes, I wanted an organization that spoke to my cultural values, political beliefs and social/educational endeavors. Yes, I wanted an organization that would make opportunities to connect with my community on a service level readily available. Yes, I wanted the network of professional/college-educated women with high aspirations, goals, and values, BUT MOST OF ALL, I was looking for SISTERHOOD. I found everything I wanted in SLU as far as philanthropy, service, academic/professional excellence, and networking opportunities, but what made SLU stand out was the beautiful SISTERHOOD. Our Hermandad is HASTA LA MUERTE! And it was obvious to me even when I was an interest how dedicated the Senoritas were to one another. It is a familia first and foremost.

SINCERITY, LOYALTY, and UNITY are the qualities that make a woman complete, but MOST of ALL, are the qualities you can find in a strong, loving family like SLU.
