After the last meeting I started to think about goals that the sorority needs to work on.
One of the main goal that the organization needs to work on is rebuilding the friendships within the organization. As all of you can remember during pledging we are taught why this organization was founded. It was because the founding mothers did not like the views and morals of the other sororities on campus. With all the backstabbing and hatred that does on in this sorority it is everything that the founding mothers stayed away from. This needs to be an organization were sisters can come with their problems and feel save and free. If you have nothing better to do than join a group that is based on hate, than you have no business being in this sorority. We are a family and we need to start acting like a family. Personally I enjoyed the birthday card idea. When I talked to inactive sisters they were happy to receive something from the sorority, so that they still felt like they were an active part of this organization. There is a reason that we have a birthday list call or text the sister and wish them happy birthday. Facebook is so impersonal show each other that you care.
The second goal that we need to work on is RESPECT for each others and the traditions that were started by the older members. There is a reason that we have scrolls so that each member knows when they pledged and their level of experience in the sorority. When ever you see older members treat them with respect and it will teach the younger members to respect you as well. Respect each others scroll and understand what challenges each other has gone through to get where you are. Respect what is written in the constitution and operation manual because everything is in there for a reason. Voting is taken very seriously. You all know this.
