“To this day, the very best friendships I have, are those that were made while I was a member of Gamma-Rho, Kappa Sigma. They are my closest confidants. They have always been there for me through the highs and lows. They are the people that I can count on the most. They are family. My life has been made better by their presence in it and I am grateful for the fraternity for creating the environment in which those friendships were made.”
