#WhyPhiMuWednesday featuring Shalena Mitchell, (Cleveland State Universiy). "I decided to join Phi Mu once I set off for college without much of an emotionally supportive network. I truly needed companions who I could trust in when times got hard. I had heard that Phi Mu had an extraordinary network of sisters and alumnae to coordinate with during college and once I graduated. What I realized was that it wasn't only four years, yet for life. I have discovered a gathering of other minority sisters who I can trust in. They are my stones, my sovereigns, my sisters forever. I wouldn’t be the woman I am today without Phi Mu." Do you want to share your #WhyPhiMuWednesday or bio with us for Black History Month? Email [email protected].
