I graduated in 2023 with 47 women I called sisters and about six I actually talk to now. That number used to embarrass me a little. Like maybe I'd done something wrong, or hadn't tried hard enough to stay connected. But I've stopped feeling bad about it. Because I think six real ones - after everything - is actually a lot. ...

So Alpha Zeta had a fire. Fire departments responded, the house got damaged, and now everybody's doing that thing where they shake their heads and say something vague about fraternity houses being old. And look, I get it. But I want to push back on the idea that this is just some random unfortunate event. Because it's not. It's a pattern, and Greek life keeps treating it like a surprise every single time. ...

Nobody warned me about the scheduling conflict between picking a major and actually living inside a fraternity. I mean, they warned me about time management in some vague, orientation-video kind of way. But they didn't tell me that Sigma Alpha Epsilon's calendar would be so genuinely packed that I'd be choosing between a major advising appointment and philanthropy week setup - and that I'd pick the philanthropy week every single time. Twice. Until I almost picked the wrong major entirely. ... Read more

Nobody warned me that formal season has logistics. I thought it was just, show up in a suit, take some pictures, have a good night. Then I joined Sigma Chi as a sophomore and watched our social chair spend three weeks coordinating a venue, a shuttle, a photographer, a DJ, catering deposits, and a guest list spreadsheet that went through like six versions. It's basically event planning with a dress code. And once I understood that, the whole experience made a lot more sense. ... Read more

There is no Greek tradition that splits the room harder than the serenade. Not formals, not bid day, not even the annual argument about whether your chapter's founding date is actually correct. Serenades are either this deeply meaningful, weirdly emotional brotherhood or sisterhood moment - or they are seven minutes of grown adults standing outside a building singing slightly off-key while a row of people judge them from a balcony like some kind of ancient ritual no one has fully explained. And depending on your school, you might be experiencing one or the other. ... Read more

The University of Central Oklahoma is hosting a Greek Preview Day on April 10, and if you're a prospective student or a curious freshman thinking about rushing, you're probably a little excited about it. That's fair. I was too, once. But I want to talk about what these preview events actually are - and what they're not - because nobody told me the difference before I walked into mine. ... Read more

There's a moment every chapter officer hits eventually. You're on the phone with your national headquarters, trying to get a simple answer about your recruitment budget or a new member education policy, and you realize - this person has no idea who you are, what your campus is like, or what you actually need. They're reading from a script. And your chapter is just one of two hundred dots on a spreadsheet they'll never look at twice. ... Read more
