It's like nails on a chalkboard to me. It's Tri Sigma or simply, Sigma. That is also stated on our website. When in doubt, always use the full name until somebody tells you not to. The last thing you want to do is offend someone by calling their organization by a name they don't use or like. /end slightly off topic rant.
Snap, snap. I dislike it when people say Tri Delt. Especially when people hyphenate it when they write it (as in Tri-Delt). Double wrong.
