Greek Chapter:

Why did you decide to become Greek? I decided to become Greek so that I could have more opportunities to interact with people that I might not have been able to otherwise. I wanted to participate in the events that are unique to the Greek community and also to become more connected with Carnegie Mellon as a whole.

What is your best Greek memory? My best Greek memory is booth from my freshman year. I heard about it all year, but I was so amazed and impressed with the incredible structures that everyone built. It was so fun to learn how to use power tools and spend time with the whole Greek community on Midway.

What has been your favorite Greek event at Carnegie Mellon? Why? My favorite Greek event at Carnegie Mellon has been Greek Sing. It is an incredible production and is amazing to be a part of. Every house is able to show their own personality.

How has being Greek prepared you in life? I have developed many leadership skills that I am able to take with me in the future. In addition I have learned a great deal about people and how to deal with many new situations. Being Greek has taught me how to take on more responsibility and learn from my experiences.
