Dear Potential New Members,

As I begin my final year at the University of Kentucky, I find myself reflecting on the experiences that have shaped me into the person I am today. Of all the opportunities, friendships, and memories I have been fortunate enough to experience, participating in Primary Recruitment and joining Alpha Delta Pi remains one of the most impactful decisions I have ever made.

Three years ago, I walked into recruitment excited, nervous, and unsure of what the future would hold. What I found was so much more than a chapter; I found women who believed in me, challenged me, celebrated me, and encouraged me to grow. Through Alpha Delta Pi, I have discovered lifelong friendships, developed confidence in myself, and gained leadership experiences that have prepared me for opportunities far beyond my college years.

As you prepare to begin your own recruitment journey, I want you to know how proud I am of you for taking this step. Choosing to participate in recruitment requires courage, openness, and trust in the process. While the experience may feel overwhelming at times, it is also filled with excitement, personal growth, and moments you will remember forever.

My biggest piece of advice is simple: be yourself. Recruitment is not about becoming the person you think others want to meet; it is about showing up as the person you already are. The women and chapters you meet want to get to know the authentic version of you. Trust your story, trust your values, and trust that your home will find you just as much as you find it.

I remember walking into Alpha Delta Pi for the first time and feeling something I couldn't quite put into words. There was an immediate sense of comfort, belonging, and genuine connection. Looking back, I now realize that moment was the beginning of a journey that would change my life.

The friendships I have built through Alpha Delta Pi have supported me through every season of life, from celebrating achievements to navigating challenges and everything in between. These women have become my biggest cheerleaders, my support system, and my family away from home. The memories we've created together are ones I will cherish forever, and the bonds we've formed will continue long after graduation.

As Vice President of Recruitment, I have the privilege of watching so many women begin their own journeys within our Panhellenic community. Every year, I am reminded of how special this experience truly is and how many lives are changed because of it.

Wherever your recruitment journey leads you, I hope you embrace every moment with an open mind and an open heart. The connections you make, the lessons you learn, and the memories you create have the potential to shape your college experience in ways you never imagined.

Congratulations on taking this exciting step. Your story at the University of Kentucky is just beginning, and I cannot wait to see all that is ahead for you.

Wishing you the very best as you begin this unforgettable journey.

Pi Love,

Molly Allen
Vice President of Recruitment
