Letter From Recruitment Chair

Dear Potential New Members,

Welcome to the University of Memphis! My name is Gracie Weeks and I have the pleasure of serving as Membership Director of Kappa Lambda Phi Mu this year. Choosing to go greek is one of the best decisions you will make in your college career. Phi Mu has given me opportunities of a lifetime, and I cannot imagine my life without it. When I was a freshman, I could not have ever dreamed of the possibilities Phi Mu would make for me in the years to come. 

I am from a small town in Mississippi right outside of Memphis. I came to the University not knowing anyone. It was scary, but I took a leap of faith and decided to go through Recruitment in Fall 2019. I met so many amazing people throughout the process, some who are now my future bridesmaids. I was able to find people who were like me from different places. On sisterhood night, I knew my heart’s choice was Phi Mu. I found my home away from home, and my people. On Bid Day, I opened my bid and was so happy to know there was a place I belonged. 

College is tough. You will experience the best, and worst times, but having your core group of people throughout it all is so important. Phi Mu has been there for me since day 1. They are there to lift you up and encourage you to do your absolute best at everything. I would have never imagined myself in such a position to lead these women without the support of our members. Phi Mu’s women make it a point to better our community through service, academic excellence, and dedication. We hope you will join us on this crazy journey throughout your college experience. 

My advice to you is to be your 100% authentic self. You will hear it so much, but trust the process. Whether your heart’s choice is Phi Mu or another chapter, I wish nothing but the best for you throughout your journey. I cannot wait to meet you and welcome you with open arms. So excited for you PC ‘22!!!

With love,
Gracie Weeks
