Sigma Sigma Rho (ΣΣP) is a South Asian-based sorority founded on December 10, 1998 at St. John's University in Queens, New York, making it the first sorority of its kind to be established on the United States East Coast. Sigma Sigma Rho embodies unity among women of South Asian descent, strives to serve society both on a small and large scale, and holds fast in instilling a sense of pride in the background of each individual sister. Sigma Sigma Rho is a sisterhood of women who have chosen this affiliation to achieve their desired personal development and to act for the betterment of local, regional, national and global communities through the efforts of a network of sisters nationwide. The organization defines itself with the saying: "Sisterhood is what we work for, Society is whom we give to, and Remembrance is what lies in our hearts." Since its inception, the sorority has made strides in serving the community, fostering South Asian cultural awareness, and acting as a valuable asset to the Greek Life community at universities across the nation. On December 10, 1998, Sigma Sigma Rho was established by ten young women seeking for an existence of a group that defined unity among South Asian women. The name Sigma Sigma Rho was chosen for the organization because it substantially upheld its motives and goals, which are expressed as Sisterhood, Society, and Remembrance. Today, Sigma Sigma Rho is one of largest South Asian-based national sororities, with hundreds of members across the country. Criteria for membership into Sigma Sigma Rho are that a woman must have exceptional morals and ethics with a demonstrated commitment to academic excellence, and be pursuing courses leading to a degree in an accredited college or university. ==Founders== *Tejal (Kundaiker) Kulkarni *Payal (Suchdev) Walsh *Rinku (Suchdeva) Thomas *Priya (Sahani) Sood * Vandana Kakwani-Pathak *Sonia (Sharma) Wadhwa *Nisha (Rana) Diler *Minna (John) Lam *Lovleen (Kandhari) Sharma * Eshna (Firoz) Kalam 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sigma Sigma Rho」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
