Never before has a year been more anticipated than 2021. And obviously, we’re hoping that the New Year won’t bring more of 2020. 

So, let yourself dream for a minute. Has being surrounded by fellow Cowboys in a sea of black and orange at a football game ever been craved the way it is right now? Can’t you just hear the deafening roar of the fight song? Has an Oklahoma State Homecoming bash ever sounded so epic? What wouldn’t you give to walk through a college campus reuniting with generations of Alpha Chi Omega sisters? 

We can’t guarantee 2021 will bring all of it. But we’re daring you to think about the things that you can reengage in after the New Year. What are you looking forward to? What do you hope for? An Oklahoma State sporting event? A 2021 Alpha Chi Omega reunion? That concert at the Gallagher-Iba Arena that promised a 2021 rescheduling? While we can’t guarantee the future (as seen by the number of us that predicted this would be over by summer, fall, winter…) we can stop waiting to start living again. 

What are you going to do to make 2021 different? Plan it now so that 2020 doesn’t sneak into the New Year. 

As Gamma Epsilon Chapterof Alpha Chi Omega alums, we are daring to plan for a better year. Here are some ideas to get you moving, involved, and engaged with your Alpha Chi Omega sisters in 2021, even if we still start from behind a computer: 

• Plan an event! Virtual or in-person. Give your sisters (and yourself) the opportunity to catch up. 
• Check the Gamma Epsilon Chapter website for any upcoming events at gammaepsilon-okstate.com. 
• Use the alumni locator map to reach out to old friends or connect via social media. Either way, just be intentional. 
• Join the board. Fresh board members are extremely valuable to our alumnae organization. Your expertise can be utilized! Contact alumninews@affinityconnection.com today for more information if you're interested. 

Whatever excites you right now, at this moment, write it down and start the plan. Whether it's a trip back to Stillwater with your Alpha Chi Omega girlfriends or a casual Zoom reunion, don’t wait to start making 2021 a brighter year.
