Letter from Jodie Watkins , PHC VP of Recruitment

Dear Future Panhellenic Women,

Welcome to the beginning of an incredible, brand-new chapter in your life: Sorority Life. Your interest in sorority life here at UA is going to play such a huge role in your college experience and I am proud to share with you my passion and experience within the Panhellenic Council. This journey that you are about to take is what leads you to unforgettable, life-long friendships, memories and experiences that will make you feel a part of something bigger than yourself.

Quite often, we find it difficult to recognize pivotal moments in our life’s that profoundly change who we are. I can say, whole-heartedly, that receiving my bid on Bid Day in Fall of 2014 was the case for me. I was a freshman women who was afraid of getting lost or overlooked on our big campus when I knew I had something to offer. I began considering student organizations to get involved with and ended up attending the Ice Cream Social in the Student Union. It was that day, the women I met, the conversations I had, and of course the free ice cream, that made me realize that Sorority Life was nothing that I had known before; it wasn’t partying or just wearing letters on t-shirts, but it was REAL people with REAL values who truly wanted to get to know me and help me become a part of something bigger than myself.

Our six sororities on campus were founded on very similar values: academic excellence, leadership development, philanthropic and community involvement, and sisterhood that will last a lifetime. Each chapter is unique and has something very special to offer to its members but without one another, our Panhellenic community could not be the award-winning community that it is today.

As the Panhellenic’s Vice President of Recruitment, I am proud to represent Sorority Life here at UA and I encourage you to take the first step in adding a new chapter to your story. I cannot wait to introduce you to all the amazing opportunities that being a Panhellenic women has to offer during our sorority recruitment this fall semester. My advice to you as you start this journey is to keep an open-mind, be yourself, and make lots of friends. If you have any questions at all, please feel free to email me.

Happy Recruitment!

Loyally,
