Letter From Membership Vice President

Dear Potential New Member,

Congratulations on getting into Christian Brothers University and choosing it for the next chapter of your life! Your first year here will be packed with new friends, experiences, and tons of opportunities. One of those opportunities is Formal Recruitment. While it might seem a bit overwhelming, it's a chance for you to discover a home away from home. Formal Recruitment lets you find a place where you can truly be yourself and be surrounded by supportive sisters.

Thinking back to my own recruitment experience, I remember feeling nervous and unsure. But those feelings vanished when I met the girls who would become my lifelong friends and sisters. I recall the excitement and pure joy of joining my new sisters. Now, we eagerly await your arrival to share what makes our sisterhood unique. The women I call my sisters are smart, brave, and authentically themselves. In my year as an AXiD at CBU, they've encouraged me to be a better version of myself and achieve my goals. Alpha Xi Delta is genuinely a place where you can discover your potential.

As you navigate Formal Recruitment or even COB, don't lose sight of why you're here. This is your chance to write your story, and I hope my sisters and I can be part of making your story great. So, embrace every aspect of the hectic Recruitment week. No matter how crazy it gets, focus on you because this is more than just an Instagram post. These girls will be your future, your support system, your shoulder to lean on, your 3 AM phone call, and your go-to lunch dates. They will be your family.

By the end of the week, I hope you realize that regardless of the outcome, there's always a home for you at Alpha Xi Delta. We're a family through thick and thin, supporting you through heartbreak, new jobs, tough courses, and major successes. A family that builds you up, always in your corner, never judging, only accepting and loving you. Alpha Xi Delta is where I found my home and family, and we hope you can find the same through your own experience.

XOXI,

Maryori Garcia
