Your Turn: ASA was at the stroll

When reading Monday's article on the lack of a crowd at the stroll-off I was a little upset. Two members of Alpha Sigma Alpha- the only two who signed up for the event- Shovonne Woods and myself, were there and on time.

In fact, we were one of the first people through the doors. I did not spend my time doing this for nothing, I had planned on strolling that Friday evening, so I went to the union, while there I saw no Daily Eastern News writer, and she obviously did not see me.

After arriving at the stroll-off, just goofing around, I strolled with a member of Phi Beta Sigma fraternity. I could roll off a list of names as to who was there and who wasn't there, but I won't.

Woods and myself were the only people there representing any PanHellenic Council sorority on this campus and there were no Inter-fraternity Council Fraternities scheduled to be there. Alpha Sigma Alpha may not have the largest sorority on campus, but we promote unity like no one else.

I can honestly say that we have had at least one member at almost every National PanHellenic Council sponsored event this year, no matter what it was. Alpha Sigma Alpha was in attendance of the stroll off, and will proudly support every NPHC event now and forever.
