This is always a fun topic to explain during recruitment. Now apparently, just about every Tri Sigma chapter except Alpha has phased out the skull and crossbones. Guess we're a bunch of freaks
Seriously though, even though some of us are not crazy about the skull and crossbones, there's no denying that it's on the sorority's badge. Our open motto is "faithful unto death" and the skull and crossbones was chosen to symbolize it.
Our local symbol/mascot is the butterfly, and we say it means eternal friendship.
