The Declaration of Principles, cornerstone of our order, elaborates on three basic reasons for our existance as a Sisterhood. These are: to ensure a perpetual bond of friendship, to develop strong womanly character, and to promote high standards of conduct.
These fundamental truths, which have guided Sigmas since 1898, are continually endorsed by the membership. Sisterhood brings together a culturally diverse group of individuals, each with special talents, opinions, and ideas. These guidelines of purpose and operations for Sigma Sigma Sigma must direct the best interests of the group while protecting individuals' dignity. This experience prepares you for life-long citizenship and an empathy for others as promisede in this declaration.
