TIKTOK

Kappa Chi Chapter, Shorter University

It’s wild to me silly little apps like this can have such a large effect on what is going on in the world. I mainly used TikTok to just be goofy and participate in the dances that were trending at that time. I remember making my first TikTok with a sister who convinced me to go through recruitment, which resulted in me being a Zeta! My university was small, so I quickly became known as “the TikToker” of my class, specifically within my chapter, and it became a conversation starter and ice breaker for me.

I was serving as our chapter

Historian-Reporter in 2020 when the pandemic was in full swing. During this time, we saw the huge rise of TikTok. This led me to creating a chapter TikTok account, acting as a great way for sisters to stay connected during this time of distance. All sisters were encouraged to contribute ideas and participate in videos. It was a great way to showcase our sisterhood, be creative and have fun together! Once we were back in person, I remember sisters wanting to stay after chapters to hang out and make videos. It quickly became another activity for us to bond.
