Hmmm... it's a very oft-told urban legend then, because I was able to find at least six references to it via google, without really even trying. A woman named Dot Grover from Syracuse seems to have been the epitome of the "national Sweetheart of Sigma Chi". Another woman is named Mary Jane Walker, from Michigan State.

Maybe it's a very old tradition? I don't remember hearing much about it at my school. but I do remember seeing candidates in the Adelphean.


ETA: International Sweetheart from 2005.

And from GreekChat!
