It is my understanding that Sigma Kappa came on after Pi Phi left several years ago but that Phi Sigma Sigma had struggled with image issues for many years at Penn. One of my chapter sister's biological sisters was a Phi Sig at Penn and she deactivated back in the 80's b/c while she really liked the women in the chapter she didn't like the chapter's reputation on campus and could not get the other women in the chapter to work with her to change it. I think her experience sheds some light on what other members may have been experiencing and the struggles of their advisors and national representatives who worked with the chapter.

For those of the Phi Sigs have posted not so nice things about their national staff and volunteers I challenge you to contact your central office and work with your staff and volunteers to change the things you don't like. Complaining is easy. Effecting change is a challenge. You should never put down a job done by someone else until you've tried to walk in their shoes.
*LD climbs off soapbox with much reluctancy and tons more she really wants to say *
Every Phi Sig I've ever had the opportunity to work with has been a woman of the highest character and for those who have not met any Phi Sigs yet, I hope that the messages posted here will not influence your opinion of an outstanding national organization.
