Sisterhood and Brotherhood

When joining either a sorority or fraternity you will immediately form connections with the other members in your pledge class, along with the older members. These connections are what form the sisterhood/brotherhood of your individual chapter.

So you might be thinking, what is the meaning of sisterhood or brotherhood.

There is not one perfect answer for this question because it means many different things. No matter what sorority or fraternity you are in, you will form life long relationships.

You will be there for one another no matter what. Bad days, or good days you will support each other.

                           

It means inspiring one another to be the best you can be and living your sororities/fraternities ideals, values and principles together.

These the are people you are going to spend the majority of your weekends with - whether it be a social with another organization or your chapter's formal, your sisters or brothers are the ones you share these memories with.


As you can tell, it is impossible to give it one definition. Having a sisterhood/brotherhood is one of the greatest experience you will have with you for the rest of your life.

These are the people you are going to spend most of your college years with. These life long friendships become irreplaceable and will make graduating college one of the toughest things you do.
