Archie, Tim, and Jeff Jacobs. “Investigating Sense of Community in First Year College Students.” Journal of Experiential Education 30 (2008): 282-285.
This article is about the sense of community that is found in first year college student. The article explain a lot about how when a student decides to join campus organizations like sororities and fraternities they feel much more at home than they had previously. Studies prove that the more involved the students become the more likely they are to return to that university the following year.
I think this article will help me out a lot because in my mini ethnography I want to talk a lot about how being in my sisterhood has helped me to stay at Ball State University. With the help of this article it is easy to see that involvement not only made me want to return to this school but many other freshmen around the country. Also, it gives sororities and fraternities a good name and reputation, rather than the negative energy that they are usually given.
Chi Omega. 17 February 2009.
This website is full of information I can use all over my paper. It has quick facts about Chi Omega and pretty much explains everything we as an entire chapter do. For example, it states our philanthropy, our founders, what other Chi Omega’s around the country are doing, etc. By having this website, I’ll be able to give facts about Chi Omega’s everywhere.
I think and know this website will help me out tremendously because it has so much information about my sorority. By having all of it out in front of me and seeing exactly everything Chi Omega stands for on our own professional site will give me much more insight into exactly what my subculture means.
