Winter Rush is fast approaching!! I hope you're all as excited as we are :) We recently initiated our Alpha Class and have a message from our newly initiated sister, Alexa, to anyone who is interested in Rushing!
First of all a loud shout out to all of the Rushes that are interested in becoming a part of Alpha Pi Phi!!!!! I first found out about Alpha Pi Phi during the summer before this term started. I was a first year that barely new anyone here and I was very doubtful that my first year would be very special. I had struggled a lot with myself over the years and had been through a whirlwind of events that left me feeling quite alone. When I met the founding sisters for the first time I felt this instant connection and this flicker of happiness that I knew had always been inside me and it started to reappear.
Learning about Alpha Pi Phi more and participating in Rush really reinforced my need to be a part of the sorority. The other pledges at the time and my now new sisters are the most amazing people I could have ever asked for. I never thought that a sisterhood could bind people together as closely as it has for me. The sorority and the sisterhood are sacred and they are the most important aspects to my life today. I feel like the sorority keeps me together when I feel like I’m falling apart.
I wanted to join to meet new people, get involved in the community, and put my academics first but I found out so much more about myself and my sisters. This experience doesn’t end after four years of university. After that it’s only the beginning because lifelong friendships, secrets, love, and loyalty are not for a moment but for forever. I am proud and ever so happy that I know what having best friends forever feels like, as cheesy as it sounds.
I know the founding sisters are excited to start Rush as well as myself and my sisters in Alpha class. We can’t wait to meet you and bring out the best in every one of you.
Φ love,
