Why I stay in Sigma Alpha!

So I could write about all of the crazy serious reasons that I wanted to join that I told the Sigma Alpha, Omega Chapter in the spring of 2013. About how I wanted to gain professionalism and connections within agriculture. Or I could write about how I really just joined because as a eager freshman I joined anything that would look good on a resume and an upperclassmen told me to.

But instead, I am going to write about why I stay in Sigma Alpha. Yes, I have gained a whole new insight into the professional world and yes, it does look good on a resume, but none of that is important when I am stressed out and busy, and still have to go to a meeting every Tuesday night.

My wonderful little, Hailee.

I go because every Tuesday night, I get the privilege of walking into a room full of bright intelligent women who all love agriculture just as much as I do. I get to hammer out details of a plan with different minds and view points, learning to compromise. I get to spend time with my amazing "little" sister, who most certainly brightens my day and reminds me so much of my biological little sister. I may have never met Hailee had it not been for Sigma. I get to sit and worry about the test I have the next day with my fellow sisters, or I get a reality check when one of them looses a close friend and my problems don't really seem that hard anymore. The structural pieces of Sigma Alpha are important, but what is more important are the women that stand next to me each meeting as we open with our objective and close with a prayer. We may not all be best friends, but we all are their for the betterment of each other, our sorority as a whole and agriculture. I am very proud to be a member of Sigma Alpha!
