Getting Involved: Ambassador Programs and Sorority Life

It is not hard to notice that the University of Oklahoma is very greek life oriented. With over 20 sororities and fraternities, there is room for anyone and everyone interested in finding their greek home. This week I visited the Gamma Phi Beta soroity house. The house was hosting an event for the clothing brand BCBGeneration, so it was a perfect time to visit.
Member of the sorority and ambassador of the clothing brand, sophomore Sogoal Davini is an advocate for both programs.
"Getting involved in greek life here really made OU feel like home. As I am a student ambassador for the brand, it is awesome to know that I have the support of all my Gamma Phi sister," said Davini.
Davini claims that though going through recruitment may be mentally tiring and difficult, however, she said it is definitely worth it in the end. Davini definitely recommends any and all OU students to at least think about the idea of rushing a house. She claims that it is a great way to meet friends, make connections, and become involved in many on and off campus philanthropy events.
"One of the reasons I think I got my ambassador job here was because I am in a sorority," said Davini. "Even being able to write down that I am a member of a house, my employer knew that I could reach out to aton of people on my campus, because greek life is so big.
When moving to OU, Davini was skeptical about going through formal recruitment.
"I was so nervous that I would not find a house that would be suitable for me or accept me," she said.
However, Davini did in fact find her home in the greek community and has not looked back since. She claims that had she not rushed, her time spent at OU would definitely not be the same.
"Getting involved in programs such as my ambassador program for BCBG and my sorority helps me grow and learn things about myself everyday, and in that growth I have a house full of sisters standing right beside me," said Davini.
