#WHM15 The Amazing Sorority Women Recap

It’s the last week of March and I’ve yet to acknowledge Women’s History Month. I haven’t had time to put together a new post about amazing sorority women, so I thought I’d quickly get together some links from past blogs. It turned out to be anything but quick. I didn’t realize I had written so much about amazing sorority women. And this isn’t an exhaustive list.of the posts I’ve written about sorority women

The next time anyone says that only ditzy, independently wealthy, blond women join sororities, show them this list.
