Holding a Position

Positions

There are many positions that you can hold in your sorority. The first and more important position is the President. The president is responsible for basically everything. Even though this sounds like a lot of work, it is actually really smart because you get the most recognition and everyone looks up to you. I thought about running for president, but then I realized how hard it would be. However, it does look really good on your resume when you graduate college. The president in my sorority barely goes out because she has so many responsibilities. It is also important to remember that when you are president of your sorority, you are representing your whole chapter. You can not do things that would make your chapter look bad because it reflects on each and every member. The president is in charge of scheduling all events, taking care of all of the problems in the sorority and is basically like a mom to all of the girls. She is definitely someone you can look up to. If i could go back to when I first joined the sorority, I would think more about being the president because it shows definite leadership skills that employers are looking for.

Vice President of Recruitment

Vice President of Recruitment is also another position that can be held. This is actually a very fun position because you get to take care of recruitment. However, it is a ton of work and requires a great amount of flexibility. VP of recruitment is fun because you get to know all of the secrets of recruitment and are basically a teacher to all of the girls in the sorority. If there was one position I thought about doing right away, it was VP of recruitment. My friend does it now, and likes it because it is fun and she gets to recruit new members, but it is a lot of work and is very tiring.

Vice President of New Member Education

This is also a very fun position that can be held. When you are the vice president of new member education, you are responsible for teaching the new members everything they need to know. You also plan events for them, help them with any problems and are their educator. This position is fun because it allows you to meet the new girls. I remember when I was a new member; I knew the vice president of new education the most because she was with us the most out of anyone.

Treasurer

Being treasurer is also another position that can be held. Personally, I would never want to hold this position. It is very complicated and takes a lot of responsibility. You have to be very careful you do not mess anything up and if girls get mad about money or something that went wrong, you are the one that they will yell at. It can be very nerve wracking and whoever takes this position deserves a lot of respect.

Secretary

This is one of the last positions that can also be held. The secretary is responsible for taking notes at chapter and for e-mailing girls about fines and sending them outlines of what will be covered during chapter meetings.
