Do I have to wait & pledge grad chapter for Delta Sigma Theta?
Q. I go to school at ITT Technical Institute in Norfolk Va, and would really like to become part of the sisterhood of DST. Since i go to a technical school do i have to wait and pledge grad chapter since it's not a 4 year college? I'm not asking for secrets or anything like that i just would like to get some general information. Every other Delta that I ask seems not to know.

Q. Hello, I ahve a general question about pledging a grad chapter of a paricular NPHC Organization, however I will be joining a grad chapter, and from what I hear, grad chapters usually don't pledge, and then I heard some do, what how should I go about trying to gt a process. And for those who are against hazing and pledging and so forth, that's your business, not mine, and a personal decision that I am choosing to make for my own reason.Thank you very much, All opnions are appreciated

A. These organizations all have official websites - you should check their site to see how the process goes. For grad chapters (at least the ones I know of) you'll go through an intense interview process instead of pledging like undergrads do. Good luck!

What is the difference between pledging Grad chapter or undergraduate?
Q. I want to become a member of a sorority but I won't be able to pledge until I go to graduate school because my current university does not have Greek organizations. I'm hesitant to, however because its often said that grad's are looked down upon.

A. Honestly, as both a grad student and a former sorority member I have no idea how you are going to have enough time for both. Grad school is crazy enough without all of the distractions that go along with Greek life.

Q. Hello I have a question. I graduated with my BS in accounting 4 years ago and went on to get my master in accounting. Now I'm going back to school to get a BS in criminal justics. I've always wanted to be a member of Delta Sigma Theta, it's been a dream for many years. The Ladies of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority have had a huge impact on my life.

A. The activities involving membership intake for Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. are sacred so I will not discuss the process over the Internet. Yes, graduate chapters step and some host parties. Both types of chapters have the same requirements and types of programs to fulfill in order to remain in good standing with the grand chapter. If you cross as an undergraduate, all your line sisters will be in college but, if you cross in an alumnae chapter, all your line sisters must be college graduates. Therefore, one difference between the two is that your line sisters will be younger if you pledge undergrad.

A. It honestly does not matter. The members simply want to see that you are of good character and will uphold the values of the sorority. Age should not a factor in determining whether or not you are a fit for their organization. If they do take age into account, they have issues. If it makes you really uncomfortable, then just wait until you graduate and join the alumni chapter. I still think you should pursue it :)

A. It's your choice...considering the situation you were in, I think you should do it, especially since you wanted to and were accepted. Most people are understanding of people's personally situations, so I think you're golden. Good luck!

how should I go about pledging Delta Sigma Theta?
Q. It's been in my heart on becoming a Delta ever since middle school. I yearn for the sisterhood and bonding. My dilemma is that I have a full time job that I cant give up because i have a good career and of course bills that I have to maintain. My question is I know that I will be able to handle going to school full time and working. But working full time, going to school full time, and pledging...will that even be an option? Or will I have to join a grad chapter? If i have to wait to join a grad chapter that's ok as well. I just needed some advice on the route that I need to take. In advance I appreciate the advice and guidance from any Delta or anybody else!

A. Delta requires a lot of work. With that being said, I believe it is possible to do it all depending on the person. When I went through intake, I was a senior in college, working 3 pt jobs, and student teaching full time during the day. Basically I received absolutely no sleep. However, once everything was over, it was over. So it depends on you. That is not the first time I had a lot on my plate. Before that semester, I was working my jobs much more, not because I had to, but because I do not like to be idle. I like to be kept busy so even though the semester of intake was stressful, I loved it. If you feel like it will be too much, wait until grad chapter. The commitment won't be easier, but at least you won't have school to worry about.… [cont.]

Sorority/Fraternity Members Only! Please Help!?
Q. During the month of March I attended a formal interest meeting for Sorority #1. It was great until they disclosed some shocking information."We don't RUSH we PLEDGE" the president admitted. When school started back in August my supervisor (a member of Sorority #1) was pushing me to join but I didn't. The undergrad chapter told her that I was interested and its been a disaster ever since. Bottomline...I no longer want to join sorority #1. I was abused as a child and I refuse to take an unnecessary beat down. I am now interested in sorority #2. I feel like going to the meeting for #1 was a mistake and I was only pleasing my family. Sorority #2 satisfies my needs and plus they don't haze. Is it possible to join sorority #2 without causing… [cont.]

A. Okay, you also asked this question on greekchat and it's no surprise that you're not getting answers. You can't tell people how to respond to something when you're the one that's looking for answers. And you should know better than to make the comment you did about the 22 AKA's that "changed their mind." First of all, that's not what happened and if you knew the story, you would know that your situation does not at all equate. Also, you should know that this is a sensitive topic and neither members of AKA or Delta will appreciate your comment. If you want answers, you need to ask respectfully. First of all, the D9 organizations banned pledging in 1990. Before 1990 pledging and hazing were two totally different things. Today anything… [cont.]
