Dear Potential New Members,

My name is Mia Harrell, and I am honored to serve all of you and my dear sisters of Alpha Delta Pi as Vice President of Recruitment! I am a rising (and already sappy) senior, with so much love left to give to a chapter that has brought me immense comfort and peace! Right now, questions may be stirring, concerns may becoming more prevalent, or even rising anxiety—whether they be about recruitment or college as a whole, know that you are in great hands at Samford! This community is something that you only experience once in a lifetime, and I truly would not have chosen anywhere else to help shape me into the woman I am becoming today.

Now, if you were to ask me what my favorite thing about freshman year was, it was quite literally being a PNM and going through recruitment. I know some of you may not feel the same as I did walking into this process, that is okay. I see you. I understand all the anticipation of what’s to come. Recruitment can be an overwhelming process, especially when you’ve just moved away from that place you’ve called home—whether that was for a short time or your whole life.But I can confidently say that through my time here in ADPi, it has been my home away from home. It has given me not only friends, but a family that I can laugh with, cry with, and most importantly grow with. These resilient women that I get to call sisters push me to be better everyday and love me no matter the cost. Now with that being said, what is most important is that no Greek letters or sorority bid could change the worth and identity that has already been placed on you by our Father in Heaven. No matter where you end up, what matters most is that you feel truly at home. I am ECSTATIC to meet each and every one of you!

Loyally and with excitement,

Mia Harrell
