Sigma Gamma Rho sorority incorporated from the side Beta Chapter and I am reduce color hi my name is Devon say Russell neighbor I go to Phi Theta fraternity incorporated the grimy Gavin new chapter in spring 16 rock club where we both make bowls I will say that in my case is changing
For the better it’s not I think I’ve definitely matured a little bit work and I’m a lot more open-minded and even more confident as we’ll and you know I just feel like that I will only continue to grow as time goes on so I don’t really feel like it’s
Affected me negatively at all I would definitely agree with you I think I definitely grew professionally socially personally networking self growth I know time management time management is so key and I learned that through joining my organization it’s a network new people and be a part of a true
Sisterhood so I definitely grew for the better I would definitely say I’ve changed her better I got more confidence definitely a lot more confidence I talked to nobody before I became Greek I was married to myself I have no friends on campus and now like I’ll talk to
Anybody outside anybody so I definitely think that’s pretty better yeah I would say I changed for the better for real cause it’s a good learning experience like coming off you don’t know exactly what you’d like to get into what a song goes you know that’s why I do fraternity
Or fitness we’re already like brothers or sisters around you to help guide you the right way you learn different things I should go down a path of Greek life definitely growing for the better it helped me realize my potential that is not only a person but as well as a
Woman yeah you know a definite you know maybe a greater guy you know being a father you know being student I’m painted brother you know in a bar that’s maybe a greater person I’m now I will say no my fee was never acted up a lot lately
So you know and after this you know put it works you know I’m saying we don’t want to decide you know definitely a better person though I will ready say a change for a better networking side I had my business side management exciting upon a little bit no other net not
Blessed to be no regulation on man in just a denied at general no I made that guy you know I was saying I was just want to sort of make sure everything I definitely feel like it was positive just time management focus confidence I think he really just helped me
Professionally develop myself for the next step in life yeah I feel like it definitely was for the better okay my independent and like being like having like a president role but that was really tough for me with them so I like what it teaches me everyday and
Like the pressure it puts on me to make me like be better I would say after our first cross that kinda got a little too car and partying aspect of being a Greek common so I kind of embarrassed myself watching this vice but you know is alright I learned from me I’ve since
Kind of got myself back on the track I don’t text anybody back now I have like 200 messages because honors momentous sometimes I just want to be left alone so I guess like my special skills have like better but they also like on the life follow side nothing outwards
Because I just be so annoyed with like my phone like I just be want to toss it to the side is it because you’re a fine woman you know and I don’t know anything it or if it’s just because people just keep texting me you know ice crust when
You thing so I are always gonna be with my fans I wrote about it like my sorors about me sensors and sometimes you kind of not intentionally but forget about the friends that you had before you agree for your the friends that aren’t green because you get so caught
Up they want to be just and you are kidding you want to show you want to take it with the you know you understand that some other organization that you try to put your other relationships to the side so I think that’s kind of like
Your sound fall but you get out of group back what you put in and you just have to stay level heavy or remember yeah I agree with that I think that was like Greek life could definitely be a distraction in dealing from school cuz on you know school just ended and grace
Came up I will say that’s very hard coming up and then I forget about you know my skip class or something like that but yeah just a focus networking of course not got to turn brothers you can see I’m saying you know pretty nice explains and I’m saying no but you know
We always think about networking very seriously without like a people he’s not wild person did it or you know the news and they dress real nice to me or interesting no real suave no real different no I’m sensing no I’m going to see you’re out there for me like I mixed
So like I have like a lot of white female role models and then I came to campus and like saw these black girls don’t think things sounds like okay so for real I just wanted to get like in touch with my roots and then like I actually got to like see what the
Organization did and everything like that so I was like yeah this this where I need to be at that’s for me when I first came to college I didn’t really know much of anything about group life on a very little experiences that I did have was you know with a close friend
I wanted to being one of my big brothers and when I got here I saw like the work that the alphas were doing on campus and you know a lot of the big leaders on campus of when I first got here were in the office and then when I kind of did a
Lot of research on organization it was really like a handy glove fit like I don’t even think I would fit in with anybody else so I just feel like it was a perfect fit for me oh you can’t categorize it no bigger man my eyes they could be doctors lawyers
Fascist thugs like myself anything teachers athletes you know kind of categorize a bigger man had to stay on some your most pleasure know they don’t ask dogs so I was think for myself I have a sister who was a part of my realization and slim and she was
Definitely sometimes people look at you from was just on the outside but I’m also intelligent – so what stood out to me about my organization is that yes we’re pretty girls pinky here flip all of that but we’re more than that we’re educators we are doctors lawyers engineers we’re leaders on campus so
We’re much more than what you see on the outside and that especially I was hired in 1908 when women were just supposed to be housewives they cater to their men he’s like whether they wanted to be educated they succeed higher learning and that’s what stood out to me about my
Organization is that yes we are orgeous when we are also pretty but we’re also extremely intelligent so that’s what made me want to be a part of this spoke to me and like um like I said when I came here I really didn’t know too much
Except for what you saw on TV and in movies and stuff so when I got here I really saw the Caucasian returning authorities and then I saw NPHC and you really saw that Network but once you do your research wise that’s why it’s like really important to do research you
Start realizing it’s so much more to look at so honestly if you ever get the opportunity to go into NPHC there should be no reason that you had chosen for the wrong reason because there’s so much that every organization stands for initially it was like for the energy and like their confidence
Basically cuz man having s heroes to Toledo so I was like seeking out in BG so like you know you go out like you see like so s you will be like after parties and they just like oh my god I love your shoes or oh my god I love your hair not
Just thought that that was so nice and my family they live in Atlanta is like how like everyone is just so connected like I sent out one text like on Facebook like hey stories I’m out here and like two days later someone came to
Pick me up took me out to lunch so I definitely love like the love that they go through for me I say it was just more so I wanted to build a tradition that mr Palmer which is actually my attorneys motto when I first came here I didn’t
Know so much about Greek life but when I did my research over different you know different organizations I pretty much saw that I heard it was more so like individualistic they don’t really fit any stereotype I know Christian back here say that they don’t feel one either
But this is our online cues they I mean he said it’s a nasty dogs Kappas they pretty boys sigma’s they Sigma’s yeah pretty much you know yeah I know same accent crazy is just more so I like I understood before you did a lot of like a lot of
Things in the community and just gave me a positive image oh yeah Sigma’s have the highest GPA on campus when just to other fraternities yeah and then when he couldn’t have an impact on to the community I saw what they were doing on campus I’m into business they have enough business events Dordogne
Community service and things that I make sure and now also me having to impact potentially on the organization bringing their my talents you know with different things I do with motivational speaker and videos and stuff and just meant to learn your nonsense so you nobody come
To me no no cake sigh oh you know achieve me you know this you know it’s real deep in our bloodline I’m saying so when I started okay excited on UT campus you know they did just that my folks I wasn’t even known for me to you know be
Myself right into that there’s something else and stuff for me you know achieving over then you being a father like I said I’ll be me being a student you know media business maybe not so business is you know so I mean definitely set out to me of course
Another wedding dress as well so that’s maybe actually what you want to do a person that has I would say friends definitely friends like my circle change pretty much my adobe’s became my business like everybody else other than that it’s kind of fell off just because
We were in two different spaces true I definitely yeah very close to my homies I spend most of my time with them outside of that I didn’t have right nine-to-five like really close friends actually is a cute you started my college career together so on that’s another thing too that I think people
Kind of get mixed up with you know just because you’re in a different return to your sorority like you can’t be close to other people and that’s not the case at all and at home as far as like women goes honestly like I don’t know you weed
Out you weed out the women that won’t you just because you’re out for because you in a fraternity here or whatever whoever well the word was there for them again not going every change you know like I said that’s why my brother is an organization to me and we still like
Peanut butter and jelly man I still got to second base versus a third baby I almost want girlfriend mm-hmm that’s about it but you know return these isolated first ones let’s say like you know you changed since you got shot let it slow and it comes away your day long
Man’s and everything like that oh yeah you don’t switch off real I used to up on the comments at first it’s hard but then the other day they know so just man and everything but you just stay true to yourself like themself said yeah your circle kind of change but just wish your
LPS and fraternity but everybody else just say the same my biggest thing is like being a part of the organization takes up a lot of your time so I just really miss my family and like my brothers and sisters are always messaging me like oh you don’t have no
Time for us and I’ve been feeling so bad so it’s like you really gotta manage over time and make time for the people that you love and a food that’s going to see Christ on a leave with my relationship with God has not changed if it’s like I would say honestly it has
Gotten stronger because this is a blessed thing that he has to put into my life so I feel like I wouldn’t switch and turn my back on him just because of my new stance as far as other people when you join a fraternity or sorority you have to hit the ground running as
Far as you have new priorities that you get a new family basically not like you get to leave your ones behind but it’s new people in your life new priorities new tasks that you need to and sometimes people can’t keep up with that like Justin said some people say like oh
You change but you assume I change because now I can’t hang out with you now I can’t go to the party and act wild like so sometimes enough that aspect that does affect relationships if somebody changed or if somebody thinks somebody has changed because they gotta
Know or get the sense I’m gonna have a look at it like they represent something honestly that’s way bigger than they say open house so they can’t go to a party they came true as much that you see nothing they can’t just get sloppy drunk you know saying like they actually stand
For something now so I’m like I mean like everybody basically say like if there’s which would be for daddy which is here become a paper towel for you my brother is my best friend my embracing guy you know the better of my brother you have to become a member okay sighs
Well you know everyone if you know but they’re not my friends name for it so somewhere he said a lot of the stuff that comes is more positive than anything so if you’re trying to switch up on you and say you changed it’s just for the better and I would say like your
True friends are going to understand like I know I got such a little bit earlier that you know you get really busy when you’re part of things like and my friends my friend drove all the way from Columbus just to see me across a chief tiberg fitted my probe and she
Just she found out hours before that’s the type of friends that you have in your corner when I you know kind of don’t talk to him for a couple weeks and they’ll call you and like where you been okay thank you remember there’s never been a they’re upset or don’t want to be
Your friend anymore because really you should have friends in your circle that’s its privacy even we’re in college we’re trying to say we’re trying to feel we’re trying to grow and so you can’t you don’t have really a lot of time to kick it and have fun all the time it’s
About this it’s on to college so those are some friends can iron sharpens iron so you have to be around people who are trying to grow up develop too so anybody that will be upset with you for being busy they probably should be aware not Greek life it doesn’t you mean be
Busyness of the internship summer so there are no friends really love you understand yes if you’re not understanding and then you feel like are not understand like what you’re going through I might you don’t I really dislike when people say that because you don’t understand but they’re not understanding and like they’re not
Trying to you know make you better as an individual right exactly idea things I think for the better you know for me it was like different cuz surprisingly month grandma like she really doesn’t support what I do but it’s like I think it’s more she doesn’t understand it so I
Tried to like you know talk to her like you know the K like this is like you know a good thing is a positive thing for me so when I talk about the leadership roles that I do in like the stuff that we do to give back then she
Starts to get it but my friend’s wife smile like they’ve been supporting like the whole way through and like my boyfriend he’s Greek so he probably gets it like so he’s gonna support it too so returnees here he is a member of our unit like in a relationship but you’ve
Got to have somebody that’s understanding like I had no man’s before this and I ain’t have no Mia’s after this if you have a relationship and you’re coming into this they got to be the most important person possibly be sense ever it’s a lot to do it and
There’s gonna be a lot of days where they they might not see you so you have to be able to like we can put in this work like we can make this work and if they might want to do that then tools they have to trust to get another don’t you mean something
You don’t get so you got to know is that’ll be a lot of trust okay yes hey by the way no loops never cheat honestly I don’t care I didn’t join for them so I just make sure that I stay on my path and as long as you keep
Close to you why you join and what you want to accomplish would feel a fraternity or sorority then you know don’t let the outside noise matter because the people that support you other people who truly care about you yeah people always have to talk whether you’re doing whether you’re in Greek
Life or not you can’t really please anyone and basically you just you can’t really pay them too much attention because then they’ll get you off your path and they get you out here like a crazy sometimes very difficult to have that aspect when is someone like your mother or your father someone who’s
Really close to you whose opinion really matters so I would say you have to trust in yourself in your decision and you have to not push it to the side but know that you’re doing this for your to know and that they’re going to support you regardless they might not force you just
Financially you might have to find a way you just have to find it within yourself to keep going to remember why you wanted to join like they said I mean it’s not times you got to think like some people don’t hate you just because you have something that they can’t attain
So if somebody says something negative about you or your organization or just Greek life in general it’s just more so maybe some people hate some people wish think they could have what you have when you do something great they always hey hello so the goal is to make this so
They are really my sisters they’re not my friends they’re they’re my sisters so just like I would check my biological sister if she was going haywire we’re doing things that I’m gonna check my my sister’s so but that’s what a sisterhood it is checks and balances keeping them
According to the check like what she’s slipping in school where you kicking in a little too much system you got a project new that’s what you’re there for we’re still holding down and on the tail I hold it yeah yeah I definitely check mine of us is and my LPS and they
Checked me too like definitely took me to just been I’m a check so like I’m gonna check on my own bees I’m gonna check on my alessa’s and I know for a fact you know cuz I’ve checked a couple of times they’re gonna check me too
But I need that like in the Greek world you’re put under this by radar and people are always going to look at you people always check up for you so if you need to be checked there they’re always going to be there to do that because you don’t want to make your organization
Look bad actually one of my oh he’s so like if he’s ever going through anything or if I’m going for anything why do I just pull in my room or vice versa which is chop it up with all the rest of them you know if they need to meet me or if they
Need to talk on the phone I think that’s a part of the bond that you build with them is that you can always kind of fall back on me someone you don’t ever have to question whether they want their best intentions for you or not also I don’t think this would just be
Like the like a Greek kind of thing just because we’re black people in America yeah so like if anybody in this room needed to be checked I believe that all of us here would do yeah because I got friends texting me and be like you know
You gotta giving up stuff like if I’m feeling myself or slacking or not focused or 91 mile B it’s just people and other organizations and stuff some people they’ve had the grief stuff get today hit it bro don’t let the big stuff gets the other like them babies are people you just met Like the hard work starts now like the real work starts now and you really don’t understand what we mean by that until you’re here and it’s like absolutely like people always want something from you if it’s not a document so connect if it’s not you know
It’s a if the real work starts not because people look at these organizations like it’s just fun you see the stroll you see you’re stepping you see the the cause you eat the hair clip all that you think that’s really what it is but it’s so much more in a man like
This is a business these are business these are businesses that’s why they don’t want any part of it there’s one incorporated so you have to run the business these chapter you’re keeping up a national and international business as a chapter so it’s a lot of work that she
Put in so I wish somebody would have told me like a whole job down my hallway I’m real chill person and everything then once like doing all letters and everything everybody else right past their whole conversation with you now away I’m nice even Greeks became green guys I love these people not
Hollering okay CCC from the Nagato that make some serious like I’m a Treasuries no Beauty no APA see I mean ain’t no joke I mean having to play with no cuz now you guys you want somebody your time as well ya know saying it forever you know no money is time baby
No I’m saying so no control yeah I mean base whatever your role is you ain’t you ain’t doing it somebody else I’m not just what each like individual organization but like he said he the treasurer NPHC so united representing your organization but you representing a heart and PFC so like
When there’s other people on campus looking at you they might not be like all I’ve been with the tech capital X they’ll be like man look at these Greeks when I’m saying like these groups always over there I see and it’s like well you have been a fool
It all see they all care why people can’t wait to wait for you you are held to a higher standard big pencil especially being on the PWI like we is we are like kind of like you said like the face of the black community
Thank You T so I’m not just a captain no more I’m Chris Brown my friend NPCs well like we were all worn like we’re family yeah i mean so like like the bond we got now if you kind of came back what I said because like we’re all where I am
Exactly I’m gonna be sentimental I wish somebody would tell me make more space in my heart because listen I did not like I knew that it was a sisterhood but I didn’t I know I was not feeling this much love for my lessons like my Ellis
Is mio he’s like it’s over and like it just feels so good to have like have built these connections and like I don’t know like it just feels so good like just to live on them and have them love on me and just I just be a couple away
Absolutely like it just feels so good so I don’t know somebody should tell me to just get shot I’m actually an only child so a whole the right brotherhood thing completely new to me I’m used to kind of be about myself and you know if I had a
Problem with someone or a situation you know always had to handle it myself so to have you know for the liner brother is definitely has like they’ve did a little bit of a weight off my shoulders a little bit because I’m not used today and except for everything is really
Everywhere my sisters are always going to be my line like those their kids are gonna be my nieces and nephews like I will be at weddings I will be an anniversary depressed everything so there live our sisters they were family I said yes I think when you’re when you’re Greek you
Don’t get to like really because like Krista is all eyes on you so it’s like you represent something bigger than yourself so when you’re drunk acting stupid at a party it’s not just oh Lacey’s drunk acting stupid is the aka it turns into you lose your name is just
Your or with acting stupid or when you get into a fire you make the scene or you do something that’s negative you’re look at your so that’s a lot of pressure yeah mistake home for the next video go on son to Astro video so you can see that organization strong state song Oh goddamn night
