Hi there! My name is Marley Scott and I am SO EXCITED to be this year’s Vice President of

Membership Experience.

        Recruitment is such a valuable and formative experience for everyone involved in it, especially

at Baylor University. With our Formal Recruitment taking place in the Spring, women have the

entire Fall semester to not only establish themselves away from home and find security in their academics, but “Potential New Members”, or unaffiliated women, are able to cultivate

relationships with all active members of Greek-life before committing to Recruitment. Not only

does this make the Recruitment process more sincere, but I firmly believe that, because of

these friendships beyond affiliation, the mutual support across the nine Panhellenic chapters at

Baylor is beautifully evident.

        I chose to come to Baylor because of how genuine and wise the people are, so given the

chance to grow closer to the women here, I knew I wanted to register for recruitment. Though I

made many connections throughout the Fall semester, the best decision I made was going into

Recruitment Week with an open mind and “trusting the process.” I was so grateful for every

invitation back to Tri Delta because every time I walked into that room, I felt truly understood and

like the passion I brought was reciprocated.

        To me, the best thing about Tri Delta is that recruitment is just the beginning of this feeling of

pursuit and genuine care. Even though I didn’t know many of the women in or above my

Member Class, there was never I room I stepped into that made me feel muted or insignificant.

To this day, these women have continued to encourage me to live to my greatest potential, and I am confident they would do anything to help me achieve what I set my mind to. In this light, my

central focus in leading the Membership Experience Branch is to ensure every member of

TriDelta is treated with dignity and compassion so that, having experienced it themselves, they

are inspired to extend the same to others.

        Truly, there is a warm and welcoming heart to each sorority here on campus, but it is so special

to find the one that feels like home – where your sisters deeply know you, want you to succeed,

and are consistent in love that you don’t have to ask for. Finding this in TriDelta has been a gift

that I constantly thank God for, and I will continue to treasure these relationships for the rest of

my life.

        As you consider registering for Recruitment, please trust in the value that you bring to each

room you walk into; regardless of the letters, there is a group of women ready to welcome you

home, walk with you through your college experience, and cheer you on through the rest of your life. On behalf of Tri Delta, we invite you to come as you are, and come stay awhile!
