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. =)

Congratulations Iota Chapter!

the award + letter from the review board

Congratulations to Iota Chapter for winning the "Expectations in Excellence in Strategic Planning" award at the Fraternity and Sorority Achievement Reception today! This is one of the few top awards given out to Greek organizations and makes it the fourth year in the row that we have received honorable recognition by the University and the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Affairs (OFSA). What was once considered a small MGC organization that seemed to stand no chance against the large Greek organizations on campus, is now growing to be one of the most influential Greek organizations on our campus. I'm so proud of all the SYZters who have dedicated so much time and effort into getting Sigma Psi Zeta to where it is now. We've come a long way & let's hope we continue this legacy! <3Crisis

Looking Back: Iota Chapter 2009-2010

Posted by Crisis at 1:20 AM 3 comments

It's been an extremely productive year and I just wanted to compile all the things that Iota Chapter has done for the past year. It's been an amazing time and I'm happy to see stronger bonds between sisters as well as stronger ties between our sorority and the community. I hope the years that follow will be just as memorable, if not more. Go Sigma! LOVE YOU ALL! <3Crisis

P.S. It may or may not be in exact order, and I know it doesn't include all the things we've done. Please let me know if I'm missing anything important or if I've made an error because these events are pretty much whatever I got out of pictures I've taken this past year haha. Otherwise enjoy reminiscing :) Warning: picture heavy!
