Other BGLO's
 

I just wanted to know if on your campus there is an organization called Gamma Sigma Sigma? If so, are they doing a call and stepping? We have them on our campus and they do our sign. It has caused a lot of anger and confusion on my part to deal with them. Sorors, please offer some words of wisdom for me.
Thanks.

Is this a new black greek sorority? If they do our sign, what's their call? What state do you go to school in?

(I'm asking all these questions so I can figure out if they only exist in a certain region right now...cuz I know they aren't in IL)

It's my understanding that Gamma Sigma Sigma is a National Service sorority founded in the 1950's. I've been told that they have several hand signs each representing a different thing and used for different reasons.
Soror, I've only been down for a year now. But I've heard soooo much of the drama between our sorors (as well as other NPHC sororities -- They're call is Weeee-Ooop. Other Sororities in NPHC have beef with them over the call and their colors, etc...) and the sisters of Gamma Sigma Sigma. All of it just makes my head spin.
I would tell you not to even sweat it. We know why our hand sign is so special to us and no one can take that away from us. Besides when we worry about little things like that, it takes away from the bigger picture. Some times you just have to ask yourself "What would Vivian do?" lol

I like that, "What would Soror Founder Vivian do". Let's not sweat the small stuff. Personally, I am too much into our sorority, our purpose, and our history to really care what other organizations are doing. I just love Sigma Gamma Rho!!!

BE POSITIVE!!!

Let me get this right...they do your hand sign, my Wee and Delta's oooop.

Sounds like they are having the best of three worlds http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

lol sisterfriend Anydaynow. It does seem that way doesn't it?

First I have to say that you knowI am gonna be using that "What would Vivian do?.....lol (ya'll don't laugh it me if I go out and get some WWVD bracelts made)

But it do sound like they are trying to get the best of three worlds, but just let it all go sorors and sisterfriends. I just wish that they would have admired us from a far and not duplicated us.

What part of Ill are you in soror, I'm in NW In. send me an e-mail.

Also I found your graphics page and it is nice, I don't know if you cheack out my site, but I might have one or two graphics you missed......I know I found some new one's on your site..

Gamma Sigma Sigma
 

I was surfing the web one day and ran across a website with information about the group.


I believe (don't quote me on this) Bethune Cookman College has this group on their campus.

You can check greekpages.com!

Here in TN, Gamma Sig's are paired with APhiQ!!!! However, it depends what campus you are on. Some chapters are all black and have the call wee-opp, but we not have the RHO sign. Other chapters are all white and are all about community service.

There is no suuch thing as APhiQ!! Alpha Phi Omega, maybe.

OKay...
 

You go get those bracelets made, soror! I won't laugh! :D

It's all good, though. Service is service, and this org is a service sorority.

HEy sorhors,

At my campus TSU ( Texas Southern University) we have Gamma Sig's I really don't pay attention to them :rolleyes:
but i know that they are paired with the Alpha Phi Omega's.

Here's their national page http://www.gammasigmasigma.org/ and I found some nice pictures (complete with the handsign). I can't figure out how to copy them since I am unable to use HTML. here's the addy http://members.tripod.com/~APQGSS/newgindex.html
go to the "gallery of photos" and look under "Founder Day Weekend 1997" the second photo has a decent shot. I'm sure if you browse you will find more.

Hello Ladies of SGRho...

I noticed this thread and I wanted to present myself if anybody had questions about my sorority. I'm open to answering anything. You can send me a PM if you'd like.

Yes, Gamma Sig was founded in 1952 and we ARE NOT a BGLO. However, we have chapters at HBCU's and I see a few were named already. I attend Georgia State which is a PWI, but my chapter (one out of just a few) do participate in the handsigns, calls, etc. We do consider Alpha Phi Omega to be our brother fraternity and the all-male AA chapters do refer themselves as A-Phi-Ques.

So, if anybody has anything to ask about Gamma Sig, feel free, either here or by PM.

Always in Service...
