You know what I would like ... a sorority for graduate students. They're frequently looking for support and service, but from their peers (not older alums or undergrads). It would have to not conflict with membership in an NPC or NPHC org, and probably have a reduced time commitment. Also, given the different lifestyles of grads, it wouldn't have houses, or tons of mixers. It would probably have more of a service focus. Think A Phi O, graduate women only.

The idea is more important than the details, but here's my stab at 'em:

name: Sigma Sigma (service sisterhood)
nickname: Double S
principles: Service to school and community; high scholarship
colors: gray and white (hey, they're not taken yet)
symbol: hand (lifts others up)
mascot: none
jewel: marcasite
flower: white carnation
motto: School, service, sisterhood
philanthropy: Local charities
That's a cool idea-I did a thread search on it and DGWannabe was starting one and asked for advice about it. Maybe you'd want to pm her about it.
I know I'd be interested. I'll be going to grad school reall really far away from my home (and chapter) so I know I'd dig it. i'd like to stay involved.
