As a volunteer with the Primo Center for Women and Children in Chicago, IL, I was surprised to learn that domestic violence was the leading cause of homelessness for women and their children. For two consecutive summers, I had an opportunity to make a difference in some of the most amazing children lives by serving as a mentor, tutor and sharing the importance of obtaining a higher education. I was able to use my organizational and planning skills for executing enrichment programs for the mothers and their children. Given the number of meetings and important initiatives that are sponsored by the Sorority, I will be able to contribute at a high level ensuring that the business of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated, is organized and implemented with high
The Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity provided a voice and a dream for African Americans around the world. For people who were colored at the time this fraternity was created, had to struggle in their everyday life because racism was such a huge focus. Alpha Phi Alpha was founded at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York by seven outstanding African American men who attended college there. They created a strong bond and brotherhood in the organization and were an inspiration to colored people all over the nation. The seven founders were known as “Jewels” at the fraternity. These seven men were Henry Arthur Callis, Charles Henry Chapman, Eugene Kinckle Jones, George Biddle Kelley, Nathaniel Allison Murray, Robert Harold Ogle, and Vertner Woodson Tandy. They were all very intelligent and brave men, a lot of people looked up to them. The fraternity was created and based on colored people who were racially prejudiced socially and educationally. There was one man who caught my eye and found very
As I started Bloomfield College I have always been interest in joining a sorority. I went to many different interested meeting and none of them caught my attention like Lambda Theta Alpha Latin Sorority Inc. did. When I sat down and listen to their history and their goals it really made me change my mind and realize that Lambda Theta Alpha Latin Sorority Inc. was the one. I am a proud Latina and to know that they were the first sorority ever created to cater towards the needs of Latinas in the nation made me more excited and enthusiastic on being part of the interested ladies. The main thing that captured my interest was to know that Lambda Theta Alpha Latin Sorority Inc. is a scholarly excellence sorority. As any person would think a sorority is about partying and having fun I believe this one focus more on their educational future and to achieve their goals.

Alpha Kappa Alphas represent service and culture more than anything.

My purpose for applying to Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Incorporated is to honor God by serving the Black community with my time, gifts and treasures in partnership with educated Men of character. I humbly accept my call to serve and desire to do so through Omega. I have gratefully been the recipient of several Omega Men’s love which has positively influenced my life. Likewise, I desire to give myself for others. I realize that all promotions come from God and therefore I have no perceived notions about how the fraternity can assist me with achieving my career goals because I trust that the principle of ‘reaping and sowing’ will naturally come to pass as I share in service alongside of Omega. More importantly, I desire the development of manhood

"Character, in the long run, is the decisive factor in the life of an individual and of nations alike." Theodore Roosevelt. Students should demonstrate scholarship, leadership, service, citizenship, and character because of three reasons. One, if students demonstrate these qualities they are more likely to get better grades and get reprimanded less. Another, without these traits, a student would have far less opportunities in the future. Finally, as students grow they will gain much more wisdom if they allow themselves to work on demonstrating these characteristics. Overall, these qualities are very important in the present, and in the future.
Day in and day out we hear about high school and college students wanting to pursue a sorority and/or a fraternity based on the stereotypes these organizations uphold, well I chose to differ. I told myself if I ever decided to become a member of a sorority it would be based solely on their ethical standards, history, and values they are founded upon. Alpha Kappa Alpha, Incorporated consists of ladies of distinction and exemplary character who excel in scholarship, leadership, and service, which are qualities I have chosen to uphold. From my perspective, I encourage myself to maintain a respectable appearance and reputation which doing so inspires me to embrace my self-concept; which helps me confidently excel academically and

They make it evident that they possess the skills necessary to be great in any field that they so

However, if you are looking to be more connected on your college campus and to automatically belong to a sense of community, joining a sorority is the perfect fit for you. Delta Gamma claims its mission is to “foster ideals of friendship among women”, and it is fairly clear through the public discourse, as well as the discourse meant specifically for Delta Gamma’s, that community and friendship is something that is cherished within the organization. Joining a sorority means that you are a part of traditions that have been around for decades, thus being connected to something bigger than yourself. A sorority isn’t just something you do for your four years in college, but it is something that you use as a networking tool and a bond of friendship for as long as you live. It also means having a forever snow cone run partner, new opportunities to plug yourself into, and girls who are always there to comment how good you look on your Instagram photos. Those these things may seem infantile, they are super important and go a long way in making you feel like you are at home at your university, and that is the exact goal of any sorority. If any of this sounds appealing to you, there should be no hesitation in
National Honor Society truly is a honor to be accepted into. National Honor Society represents scholarship, leadership, service, and character. I believe since I was young I have shown compassion and leadership needed in our society. That is why this is the right society for me.
