Early Fraternity Life and Career

After graduating from Burlington Township High School in Burlington, NJ, Emily decided to attend Drexel University because of its well known co-op program and location in the heart Philadelphia. Emily first received a letter inviting her to join Phi Sigma Pi in the spring term of her freshman year (2005). She attended one of the rush events held by the Chapter, but did not take the event seriously and was not extended a bid. The following fall term, Emily began dating Patrick Smith, current active Gamma Xi Brother, who was rushing Phi Sigma Pi at the time. As she began to learn about Phi Sigma Pi and socialize with many Brothers through Patrick, she realized it was a group she wanted to be a part of. She threw herself into the rush process the following spring term, one full year after first learning about the group, was extended a bid and has never looked back.
