Alex Welch is a member of the Zeta Tau Alpha chapter at the University of Nebraska – Omaha (UNO).
“ I chose this sorority because I loved how genuine all the members are and agree with their values,” said Welch.
The philanthropy for the Zetas is Breast Cancer Education and Awareness. Alex is passionate about raising money and awareness to this cause.
Alex explains “we put lots of fun events on such as bake sales, pie a Zeta and go to a walk-in Lincoln to support our cause”.
There are many ways to join, they host formal and informal recruitment options. Formal recruitment starts in September but informal recruitment is year-round.
Welch explains how UNO is a huge commuter campus and by joining the sorority she has become involved with over 90 members.
“It makes me form different relationships around campus. These include life long friends as well as getting involved and familiar with different organizations and services offered on campus” Welch states.
