First off I am very flattered that you want to identify with Sigma Kappa in some way. But I am very confused. If your school does not recongize you as a local social sorority you will become a women's group, right?
I understand how frustrated you are, so I am going to help you out.
The history of Sigma Kappa Eplison Pi (or whatever name you have chosen) should contain why you and other women (if there are any there women helping you) want to start a social sorority at your school. It's not like all of our 5 founders sat around one day and said "oh, let's start a sorority." It takes time.
Colors should mean something to you. Lavendar and Maroon are special to us Sigma Kappas, you want your colors to be special to your organization (something that makes you stand out). I would not want you using my colors cause you do not know the meaning behind that.
You would want to come up with rules, standards, and bylawas that every young women must follow once they are pledged and initiated into your organization.
You would want to develop a ritual of your initiation, pledgings, and what ever else that you feel that you need to have a ritual for.
But please DO NOT use our things, history, colors, mascot, and I would say ritual, but I am pretty sure you don't know what our ritual is .
The whole beauty in starting your own organization is creating it how you want to see it grow in the years. So be creative and make it special of what you and the other women want it to be.
One heart, One way
