Reflections from the Harmonic Goddesses

Ashley Hunter

Hi everyone!! My name is Ashley, and I am super excited to tell you about my MEP experience. It’s 2:00 am during Week Five, and I feel like everyone who has gone through this process has been awake at this point, trying to finish everything and make it as perfect as possible. While MEP has been super stressful at times, it has been a lot more fun. Getting to know everyone in Tau Beta has been amazing, and this process has definitely made me a stronger person. My pledge class is amazing, and we have become super close throughout this entire journey. Getting to know the KKPsi’s has been really fun as well. Spending time with their MC’s has been a blast.


Week Five is almost over, and I am ready to have everything done. MEP has been a lot of fun, but I’m ready for sleep. So many amazing memories have been made, and I will cherish them forever.

    Hello all! My name is Maisha but everyone calls me Shishi. I am part of the Harmonic Goddesses MC class.  I am from San Antonio, the 2-1-0, the countdown city.  These past several weeks have been ridiculous, yet fun and eye-opening.  I will say my parents and friends, outside of Baylor, think I'm lying in a ditch somewhere because calling them has definitely not been happening too often.  I have missed my mom, whom of which I tell everything, but as the weeks have gone on I have come so much closer with my "classmates".  They are considerate and helpful, all in their own unique ways, which makes them trustworthy confidants and, us as whole, a good team.  Albeit getting to this point of complete synergy was a little rocky at first, we had three and a half come to Jesus' that eventually worked out.  But good gravy, it did not seem like things were going to get resolved with each come to Jesus.  Living in a world where everything is virtually instantaneous, from communication to making a mac-n-cheese bowl for dinner, MEP has showed me that working together as a cohesive unit is not easy to accomplish and obtain.  There is a lot of patience, tolerance, and compromising involved which indeed takes buckets of time.  I think something all of us learned together was being open minded toward other personalities and being able to work around each other's preferences throughout MEP.
    I did learn a few things within myself and when I say a few I mean one in the time I'm writing this.  So the one thing I have learned in this whole process is that I am able to stay calm through not only personal stress but also stress and frustration within a group that inhibits progress.  So for labeling purposes, I suppose I have learned a skill about myself...? All in all, I think this has been an insane experience I'm not sure I would do it again but if I did I now know more of how to go about organizing and communicating and using what little free time I have to relax and give my body a break every once in a while.  I really enjoyed my MEP weeks even with all the ups and downs because what doesn't kill you makes you stronger right? And I can't wait to be a sister of Tau Beta Sigma. ​

Hi! My name is Casey and my MC name is Danu. (Danu is a water/wisdom goddess from Ireland.)
So my MEP experience was…kinda painful. Literally. I fell off my bike during week three, haha. Other than that I had a good time. Going to the zoo with the KPsi MCs was really fun! SO were a bunch of the other activities. My favorite thing, though, had to be the one on one times. The other MCs and I are having a good time, tiring, but good. We’re almost done, and that’s exciting. I’m really excited to be a member of Tau Beta Sigma.
I’ve learned a lot about myself and about the organization. I’ve become a lot more comfortable speaking my mind when I have an opinion. I also feel more outgoing now and am more comfortable talking in general. I’m really glad that I have the chance to get to know all of the wonderful women in our chapter.

It's week five of MEP!!! I'm so excited to be done soon and have some free time, but I think I will always cherish these memories, no matter how exhausted I am right now. We have been through some rough patches together, but we have also learned from them, such as better communication skills, respect, responsibility, compromise and cooperation, time management, and several more. I am so lucky to have gotten such supportive and helpful bigs that really want me to do well. Not to mention, all of membership is rooting for us and they are all so kind and generous. I didn't know what I was getting myself into when I said yes, and when I first heard that pledging was a five-week long process with tons of events and projects, I will admit that I second-guessed my decision to pledge. But when I started getting to know all of the membership and doing the events, I realized that I truly wanted to be a part of this organization and I wanted to be a part of it now. I can't wait for the next few days; for activities night and to cross! I'm praying everything goes well and that membership and the alumni are pleased with our projects! Let's go, Harmonic (Majestic) Goddesses

Hi everyone, I'm Alexis and my MC name is Epona. These past few weeks have been difficult and very busy, but I will hopefully get through it and become a member in less than five days! It's hard to imagine that about five weeks ago I met the people who would be in my MC class. These five weeks have gone by really fast, and soon it will hopefully be time for third degree. Over these five weeks I have learned time management and communication skills. I have also learned more about myself, the rest of my MC class, and the sisterhood. I hope that on Sunday I will be able to join the wonderful people that make up TBS!
