As members of the fraternity/sorority community, Alpha Delta Pi is proud to welcome those who want to enhance their college experience as part of something bigger. We select and maintain membership on the basis of scholarship, leadership, commitment, and service to the work of the sorority, the university, and the community. Alpha Delta Pi actively encourages a membership which represents a diverse population and does not discriminate in membership selection procedures. Come home to Alpha Delta Pi and find women who are true and loyal, just like our blue and white colors represent. ADPi sisters are leaders and visionaries. We are SGA senators, artists, student athletes, and scholars. We are committed to sisterhood, values and ethics, high academic standards, and social responsibility. We committed to those when we established the first secret society for collegiate women in 1851 at the first university chartered to grant degrees to women. We are committed to them still today.
Hi everyone, my name is Kate Mckeighan and this year I am honored to serve as Alpha Delta Pi’s Vice President of Recruitment. I am from Phoenix, Arizona and I am a junior majoring in Nutritional Sciences and minoring in Physiology and Medical Science.
When I first went through recruitment, I remember being so excited to find a place with driven, like-minded women that made me feel welcomed and at home. After my first conversation at Alpha Delta Pi, I knew that the women in this chapter would be my forever family. I never felt nervous, or like I had to be anything but my true, authentic self. The women at Alpha Delta Pi made me feel special, important, loved and wanted. And my sisters in this chapter still make me feel that appreciated single everyday. My goal in this position is to help potential new members experience that same feeling when they come to Alpha Delta Pi.
My biggest piece of advice is to stay true to yourself! Everything happens for a reason and will work out in the way it’s supposed to, even if it doesn’t happen as you planned. Go into each round of recruitment and be your true self, you are amazing! Formal recruitment helped me find my best friends, future bridesmaids, and my home at the University of Arizona. This experience taught me so much about myself, my values, and helped me to break out of my comfort zone, which I am forever grateful for.
I am thrilled to be able to serve in this role in leading my chapter through the recruitment process! I look forward to meeting in August and to show everybody who walks in the door how much this chapter and sisterhood truly means to me, and all the sisters of Alpha Delta Pi.
Loyally,
Kate Mckeighan
