The Red and Black

Why do we do it?

To give a little bit of perspective other than my own, I asked a few of my sorority sisters why they became Greek. Here’s what they had to say:

 ”I think Greek life ties people together and gives them a common bond. I’m a freshman, and being in a sorority has made the transition from living at home to UGA much easier. My sorority is my home away from home. It has provided me with a way to develop relationships that will last for the next four years.”- Amy Regan

“I wanted a segue into other organizations … because the out-of-state ratio is so small in comparison to in-staters, and by getting to know more people it makes a big school seem a lot smaller and more personal.” - Katie Hurley

“I joined a sorority at UGA because I thought it would be a great way to get involved and learn the ins and outs of campus my first year. I didn’t expect to make some of my genuine best friends along the way!” - Kimberly Jahnke

“My sorority means the world to me … I’m so thankful that I joined because I wouldn’t have as many wonderful friends as i do now without it.” -Clare Marshall

“It was such a relief to me to know when I came to UGA, not knowing hardly anyone, that I would instantly have a group of friends that I knew I could count on.” -Jessica Prater
