Beta Epsilon - Fall 2019

I never thought that I would join a sorority. I rushed almost on a whim, never imagining that I would end up where I am right now. However, I wouldn’t trade it for the world.

aKDPhi has given me a group of wonderful girls that I am proud to call my sisters. Through them, I have gained a community of support and love that I can always rely on.

My line sisters, through sleepovers and meals, have taught me how to laugh more and open up to others. Through them, I have gained a newfound confidence as I continue to meet other people around the world.

My bigs, through food and love, have taught me how to rely and depend on others more. They are always encouraging and supporting me with every step I take.

Why aKDPhi?

Without aKDPhi, I wouldn't have met these girls who I am proud to call my family. It is through aKDPhi that I have gained unconditional love and support for everything I do.

Beta Delta - Spring 2019

A big thing that aKDPhi has helped me with is building my network, both socially and professionally. On one hand, aKDPhi has given me my beautifully quirky line sisters and my thoughtful and caring bigs. I know I can always talk to them and count on them to listen as well as provide advice and support. Plus, I can always count on them to make me laugh with their goofiness.

Why aKDPhi?

On the other hand, it was aKDPhi that also introduced me to my current job as a pharmacy technician. This has not only strengthened my resume, but has also helped me build more connections with people in the field that I hope to have a career in one day.

To me, aKDPhi is unconditional love and support.

It is so easy for one to feel lost as a college student who is still trying to figure out what they want to do in life, and without the right people to help them get through that stage of adulthood, that feeling will only continue to grow. While I also experience this feeling as I make my way through my undergraduate years, I have my sisters who are always there to remind me that they are proud of me and help me realize that with every obstacle I face, I am only learning and growing into a better person. Instead of feeling defeated every time something doesn’t go the way I expect it to, I’m now more confident in my ability to get back on track and overcome those setbacks.

Why aKDPhi?

Never once have I felt like I didn’t have a shoulder to lean on, and I am beyond grateful to have aKDPhi as my support system.
