motivation

MikaylaBradshaw — 2025-04-25 13:05:14 UTC

My motivation or reasoning for joining is because my older
cousin went to this college and was a part of the sorority
although I have no interest in the sorority. I do want to go
to the same college as her regardless. Not only that but it's
quite important to me that i go to a HBCU college
