    First time watching your video was doing research and landed on your channel . I work in Kuwait I am interested in graduate chapter. I love your energy

    Hey Soror, love the video! One suggestion I would add is not to do an 'awkward pause' on the blanked out name of the questioner. Just say, "my name is anonymous". It will be clearly understood by the audience since you also have the actual question shown in the bubble. Love ya and keep up the good work!

      Thank goodness! A positive video! I've seen so many denouncer videos lately. I could understand by their comments that they really didn't understand what they were doing by joining. Nobody is asking them to substitute God for a Greek mythology figure! Nobody is asking them to worship an organization and put it before God! Symbolism vs reality.
      Thank you for your perspective, soror.

    Hey, Soror! I just recently pledged the Delta Alpha chapter of DST at Bethune-Cookman University in March 2020! This video was SUPER AMAZING.. & I WISH I had this back some months ago & even during my freshman year!! Lol.. I had so many of the same questions such as Delta’s relation w/ Christianity & even looking into a chapter while not knowing any active members! This hit everything dead on the head. I just know this will be a tremendous blessing to so many others as well! Thank you for this!! #AOML 🔺

    Heyy I’m a first timer & Thank you for such a great informative video ❤️. My question is ..is it a requirement to have community service to be apart of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc. or is optional depending based on your chapter ? My second question is will not having community service lessen my chances into being in the sorority ?

    • @TyraTheCreative
      @TyraTheCreative  4 роки тому +1

      Hi! Thank you for watching! 😇😇 So, this organization is a community service based organization. I can’t say anything specific, but it would be great if you did some community service since that’s the basis of Delta!

    Hey Sunshine! How are you? Firstly, THANK YOU for making Greek and Acting tip videos. They are very helpful. On to my question. I graduated undergrad with a 2.67 and immediately went back to the same University to obtain another Bachelor’s degree (so that if I decide to pursue a Master’s degree, I’ll feel more confident about my gpa). Would I meet the gpa requirements for DST’s alumnae chapter if I was to use my 2nd Bachelor’s gpa or do I have to graduate with my Masters? Does your sorority still have the 10 year loop hole? (Waiting 10 years after you’ve graduated and your gpa will be omitted)
    Thank you in advance for reading 😊

    • @TyraTheCreative

      No, you would not. Because you’ve received a bachelors degree. You’d have to join alumni

  • @kenb.5005
    @kenb.5005 4 роки тому +9

    My concerns are my tattoos (they vary and size and are everywhere) and a few piercings (nose and ears). I do no not want my interest of expressing my love for art to become the one obstacle of holding me back. I believe I reach every requirement but appearance. I don’t want them to have. The wrong impression of me or see me as not fit. They can be covered with the right attire. I would like your knowledge of it because it’s holding me back from trying to join. Thank you xo

    • @TyraTheCreative
      @TyraTheCreative  4 роки тому +8

      you actually make a very valid point, even though there are no rules that say "you cant have tattoos" some people automatically associate a lot of tattoos with other negative stereotypes. I'd honestly say, if you can cover up, then do it. you don't want that to distract anyone, because some people have their thoughts about tattoos and you don't want that to under your chances. But, there are TONS of tatted people in greek organizations. so, don't think that you wont be able to be one at all, I look at it like this, dress like you'd dress for church when you are doing sorority stuff.. I hope this helps!! you are so welcome and thank you for watching my video!! ❤️❤️

  • @jada7323
    @jada7323 4 роки тому +5

    What’s the difference between active and inactive members? I come from a LONG line of deltas so going in I would be a legacy but I’m not ready to let my family know bc I am not 100% sure if I want to join so I don’t want to get their hopes up just in case I decide not to so I don’t want to ask them. And what do you need to have the active member to join for? Thank you !

    • @TyraTheCreative
      @TyraTheCreative  4 роки тому

      Hey Jada! I think you should’ve let your family know! They can give you more indepth answers than i can! But an active delta is one that has paid dues for the current fiscal year.

  • @stephaniebates4982
    @stephaniebates4982 4 роки тому +1

    Hey, first timer. ♥️ I also have some questions. 1.) Do you have to be a sophomore to be eligible, or you can be a freshman? 2.) What is the process (or steps) on becoming a delta, or any sorority/fraternity? 3.) What is crossing? Thank you. ♥️✨

    • @TyraTheCreative
      @TyraTheCreative  4 роки тому +1

      hey stephanie! these are the types of questions that get answered once you attend rush, and you can find out the eligibility requirements on the national website. you have to have a certain amount of credit hours to be eligible. the steps are there as well. and "crossing" literally means when you become a member of the organization!

      Crimson and Cream!

    • @lillianwilliams5510
      @lillianwilliams5510 9 місяців тому +1

      Delta official colors are CRIMSON and CREAM .
      PYRAMID COLORS ARE RED AND WHITE.
      SINCE CRIMSON AND CREAM MATERIAL WAS OFTEN HARD TO FIND. THE SORORITY USES RED AND WHITE.
      YOU MAY SEE BURGUNDY OR DEEP PURPLE.
      ALL THIS IS ON THE PUBLIC WEBSITE.

  • @lillianwilliams5510
    @lillianwilliams5510 9 місяців тому +1

    If there is only one DELTA, on that campus. then there is no chapter.
    It wouldn't hurt to get to know the one.
    If she transferred. She may not be financial and may have personal reasons why she transferred.
    For most chapters. There are public service events.that someone may be able to volunteer.
    Character and public service are essentials.

    Hello, my concern is not being able to join because when I was younger my nerve got cut in my hand causing my pinky finger to not connect with other fingers. It’s an concern because I know deltas position their hands into a pyramid.
    Thank you in advance

    • @lillianwilliams5510
      @lillianwilliams5510 9 місяців тому +1

      THAT WOULD BE DISCRIMINATION. PLUS BEING ABLE TO MAKE THE SIGN.DOESN'T DETERMINED WHETHER YOU ARE ACCEPTED.

It hurt so much more than I could imagine because I’m a senior in college and wanted this forever, but at my university it has been suspended for my first 2 years in college. Is there anything you can suggest me to do for the future to become one? I graduate in May.

    • @lillianwilliams5510
      @lillianwilliams5510 9 місяців тому

      If you have graduated and are still interested in becoming a Delta. Learn if there is an ALUMNAE CHAPTER IN YOUR IMMEDIATE AREA. GET TO KNOW WHO THE MEMBERS ARE
      See if you can volunteer in some of the public events.
      Learn if they have plans to do a membership intake, so you may get invited to the informational rush.
      Learn as much as you can about the sorority.
      Character. Grade point. Public Service are essential and re-
      commendations.
      You may be able to talk to one of the members to learn what you may have done incorrectly.
      Also depends on the college. Campus size and how many young ladies were interviewed.
      They may have had a certain number,theycould take in.
      What did your rejection notice say. Was it an email, form letter, Or note or verbal communication?
      I wish you success.

I attend Harris-Stowe State University and I am interested in Delta Sigma Theta but there isn’t a chapter on my campus according to their website but on the Delta Sigma Theta website it says that there is a chapter, how would I go about finding the chapter on my campus? Follow up question if there isn’t one are there requirements to restarting a chapter on campus and do you know how I would go about doing that?

    • @TyraTheCreative

      Make sure it is an authorized meeting with an advisor( s ) present.
      It should have been made public. Not a secret meeting.
      If you want to learn. Attend a Formal Informational Rush. Know who are the DELTAS .
      THEY SHOULD INTRODUCE THEMSELVES AND THEIR POSITION.

      For membership into DST. You should receive an official FORM LETTER.not word of mouth or email; although each chapter depending on whether a collegiate chapter or Alumnae. May be at the decision of the chapter. But you should receive a formal form letter and it may advise you what next to do.
      There is a process for each phase.
