Statement Of Purpose: Delta Sigma Pi Application
I am a second year student at the University of California, Irvine studying economics writing to express my interest in joining your business fraternity, Delta Sigma Pi. I am applying to your fraternity because through interactions with brothers in your fraternity, I have seen a level of respect, professionalism, and passion for business that I relate to. I believe that with my work ethic, positive attitude, and experience working with people from different backgrounds and with different ideas will allow me to be a productive member of your brotherhood that will also give back to the brotherhood.

Each time customers came in, I made sure to ask them how their day was in order to create a connection and if they were regular customers I made a point to remark on a topic they brought up on their last visit. By taking the time to get to know customers I was able to create personal

    In my Sigma Chi career, the most contribution I've made is owning every position that I've held. Up until my term, no one had ever done anything with the positions of Tribune/Public Relations. In my tenure, I started a bi monthly alumni newsletter, and completely redesigned our website. We were able to better involve alumni in chapter operations as well as increased our web traffic six-fold. In Quaestor, I was able to redesign how we operated collections from brothers. With this we were able to utilize apps on phones for brothers to pay dues and other chapter expenses, this led to high collection rates and the ability to pay off a $8,100 RMF bill in one semester, all the while staying in budget constraints; this had never been done before.…

    I would like to begin by saying that I am honored to be a nominee for membership into the 2013 Senior Honor Society of York College of Pennsylvania. I take passion in my academic studies and my community involvement. The opportunity to be recognized for the impact I have made on my college and local community is truly flattering. After spending my first two years at Millersville University, I began my studies at York College in my third year of college as a junior. Living in Spring Grove, I made the decision to live at home, work a part-time job, and commute to York College. These factors are all things that could have impacted my campus-life involvement, but I was determined to not let these factors impact my college experience. I jumped head first into the York College Community and was accepted with open arms into whatever groups I wanted to become affiliated with on campus.…

    Sigma Alpha Sigma- a name foreign to those apart from my educational setting. A vast amount of students throughout my school follow this name, seeking leadership experience or someone to be led by. Despite a lack of recognition, Sigma Alpha Sigma possesses drastic influence on the community and on the pursuits of education. As a timorous freshman approaching a dauntingly large high school, I was thrown into an abyss of unknowns. My freshman year, I noticed the Greek letters of Sigma Alpha Sigma pass by, reflecting as if they were fluorescent signs. This organization, I learned early on, was crafted to remove the gap between students and teachers while empowering the future leaders of the world. Sigma, to me, has been one of my most significant…

    I have decided to pick the sorority known as Alpha Kappa Alpha also known as AKA. I know very little about this sorority, except for the stereotypes, which indeed may turn out to be true, who knows. I am definitely interested in researching their history; I want to know where they originated and what their beliefs and principles may be. I’ve learned that sororities are about more than just the paraphernalia, the parties, and Greek letters. Sororities are about lifelong sisterhoods and tradition. I also…
