CHAPTER HISTORY​

 

Our journey began in January of 2014, when a group of young women decided that the University of Florida was in need of, not a new sorority, but a Sisterhood unlike any other. This was only possible with the formation of an Interest Group. After immense amounts of research, Sigma Sigma Rho Sorority, Incorporated captured all of our hearts. They possess so much more than we wanted in a Sorority: Sisterhood, Society, and Remembrance. We knew that this was the organization that we wanted to become part of, and we knew that we could truly create change on our campus. Word spread that girls wanted to form an Interest Group for Sigma Sigma Rho Sorority, Incorporated. Girls of all ages, places, and social circles came together to become part of the Interest Group. Sigma Sigma Rho Sorority, Incorporated was invited to present to the University of Florida Greek community on October 12th, 2014 and on November 19th, 2014. Sigma Sigma Rho, Sorority Incorporated was invited to join the Multicultural Greek Council at the University of Florida.

NATIONAL HISTORY

 

Sigma Sigma Rho Sorority, Incorporated is a historically South Asian based sorority. Founded on December 10, 1998 by ten Distinguished Ladies at St. John’s University in New York, Sigma Sigma Rho was the first sorority of its kind to be established on the East Coast. The name Sigma Sigma Rho was chosen for this organization because it substantially upholds our motives and goals, which are expressed in Sisterhood, Society, and Remembrance. Sigma Sigma Rho embodies unity amongst women of South Asian descent, strives to serve society on a small and large scale, and holds fast in instilling a sense of pride in the background of each individual sister.
