Why did you join Tau Beta Sigma?
"The sisters were my first experience with the bands at Butler, and their guidance led me to want to be in their position for future years."

What is your favorite part of being a sister in Epsilon?
"I have yet another family of friends that is so strong, so special, and so unique. We can be there supporting each other, having fun, and serving all at the same time."

What are your favorite Tau Beta Sigma activities?
"I joined because I knew I would be doing things like working with Girl Scouts, but I don't think I could choose my favorite now. I really love bonding activities like Sister Retreat when I get to renew the bond for the coming year and just relax."

Which of the "Five Qualities" is most important to you?
"'Cultivation and maintenance of your emotional poise under all conditions' is one of my favorites because it is something I am constantly working on in my life and something all of the Epsilons sisters get to practice regularly in our chapter and joint chapter relations."

Which of the "Eight Essential Factors" is most important to you?
"'Fortitude and courage to see an ideal, to seize upon it, and follow it wherever it may lead you in Tau Beta Sigma' is another favorite because it is such an inspiring phrase which is essential to being a successful sister."

The best thing about band is ...
"the people!"
