My big little experience by Gabby Bertoia

Updated: Jun 10, 2020

I was newly initiated this past December with all my sisters, but prior to that something really special happened that made my experience with joining this organization one of the best decisions yet. From personal experience, I met the most selfless friend on bid day, and I had no clue yet. I did not know she would become my big or my best friend. I had no clue how much she would mean to me or how much the countless memories we have together would mean. She taught me patience and kindness.


She became my personal life coach. She is the person I can go to at my toughest times for a shoulder to cry on and someone I can go to on the best days where we can joke around and laugh with one another. She is a ray of sunshine, and I am so lucky to have her by my side. I am so glad I came home to that blue door with her. She stepped into my life and has made every moment together special. She constantly is someone who is making me laugh and she truly knows how to put a smile on my face. She has showed me the limitless opportunities there are within this organization and beyond.


Through Alpha Delta Pi I have met so many women that I feel comfortable enough around to go to with anything. Joining this organization has allowed for me to say that I will always have someone to call a best friend, someone I can look to for advice, and someone who is a role model to myself and others. We encourage one another to be better versions of ourselves, whether that be through volunteer work, academics, and everything in between. The bonds my sisters and I share are lifelong bonds. I never imagined I could have such a support system with all these women.


The women of Alpha Delta Pi are not just ordinary friends, they are friends that truly care about your success and well being. Alpha Delta Pi has shown me how much positivity and change can exist if we are supportive of one another and build each other up.  Joining Alpha Delta Pi has allowed me to meet so many incredible women, starting with my big. My experience with transitioning to Ohio University, where I didn’t know a single person, was significantly changed for the better through the friends I have met in Xi chapter.
