Sigma's Sweet Sixteen in Seattle

Posted by Vitalia at 5:41 PM 0 comments

This year, our national convention was held in Seattle, WA, the first west-coast convention. Rho Chapter hosted an amazing convention with line syzter dinners, to an amazing cruise party and a fantastic gala. We met a lot of different sisters, and finally got a chance to meet sisters on the West Coast!

Some other highlights of this trip??

We sold out of the super cute shirts that Rena designed!
We won our first ever Psi Sistership Award!
3 Iota sisters are now on National EBOD!
While taking a national group picture after the workshops, meetings, and elections, a bride and groom decided to jump into our picture and take a few pictures of their own! It was a little weird, but really fun and interesting =)
seeing the famous fish-throwing, singing people who sell fish, and buying some really amazing smoked salmon from them

Congratulations to our entire chapter for getting a Psi Sistership Award for distinguished Achievements in Integrity!!! And congratulations to Stephanie “Thalia” Liu and Camille “Nocturne” Enriquez on becoming the new Chapter Directors and Alice “Vitalia” Wu on becoming the new Speaker of the Council on EBOD 2010-2011!!

It’s been a great year for us, and we’re definitely headed towards becoming even stronger and closer than we already are.

Our Rho host, Nancy “adinah” Ho, was incredible and very helpful. We owe her a special thank you for everything that she’s done for us this weekend. It was an amazing weekend, and this convention really set the bar for future conventions.

Here’s some pictures of this weekend. =)

Sigma Psi Zeta - Iota Chapter

Sigma Psi Zeta is the first and only multicultural Asian Interest Sorority on the University of Rochester campus. We emphasize leadership, scholarship, advocacy, community service and cultural awareness.

Sigma Psi Zeta works to promote awareness of the Asian/Asian American cultures and heritages amongst the students and faculty of our campus. We believe the strength of our foundation derives not just from the unity of our sisterhood, but also from the individuality of our members.

The Iota Chapter of Sigma Psi Zeta was established by Wincheng Lin and Jeanette Moy on December 1, 2000 at the University of Rochester. These women, united by their desire to affect change on their campus and the surrounding communities, create a lasting sisterhood, and promote unity among women and those of the Asian/Asian American community, set forth to bring a charter of Sigma Psi Zeta to their campus in the Spring, 1999. As friends, and later as roommates, they occasionally discussed the creation of an asian-interest sorority. They wanted an organization that would be beyond the bonds of friendship and instead hold bonds of sisterhood. Jeanette's older sister was a Sister of the Alpha Chapter of Sigma Psi Zeta, and after careful consideration, the two desired to join the organization that Sister Zoe had joined years before. It was not until Fall 2000, however, that their vision was realized. Their friendship was unparalleled, and with each other's support, no challenge was insurmountable. With much perseverance, determination and work, these ladies, known now as Trax and Fenix, became the Iota Charters.
