Contributions

Contributions!

I believe that since I am in my field site as a member that I can give a lot back to my community and my school. For example, I do seven hours of community service a semester and I would love to do more (wish I had a car to get out and do more!) I can let our class know more about rush and what being in a sorority is like and all of the philanthropies that each sorority on campus is raising money for so that they themselves can go and support Greek life without being Greek. For my education, I can get scholarships for being in Chi Omega so that helps me have an incentive to work harder. Not to mention with my GPA I am entitled to do one study table hour a week so it gives me a chance to go to the library and study without so many distractions that one would have in their rooms. Also, since I have a high GPA that gives me more of an advantage because if you are below the requirement then you are on social and academic probation which means if you don't get your grades up you can't attend any social events that are put on by the sorority and have to do more study table hours than usual. By being able to let everyone know these details, I am contributing to voicing our cause and to let others know what they can do to help not only Greeks but things in the community.
