Blue1922,
I totally feel you!!! I am on a couple of the egroups and if you've seen messages from me (Monique), you know that I am always pumped about us getting out there and getting SIGMA into the mouths of others!
Sigma, does her work and is all about the community, but when it comes to public relations and MARKETING (which is something that I think EVERY non/not for profit organization should focus on)--we are not where we should-and can be!
Like I've said before, we may be the youngest of the sororities, but we are almost 80 years old....there's no excuse for people still not knowing who we are! And if they dont know, it is our job to EDUATE them! Personally, I refuse to settle when we are overlooked (whether its accidentally or intentionally). Why? Cause none of the other organizations are going to speak up for me! It's MY job to jump in there and make some noise when someone talks about the NPHC sororities and doesnt mention Sigma!
I dont think soror Blue1922 was tearing down the efforts of thousands of sorors....the media (and i hate using such a broad term, but I cant think of anything better)is downplaying OUR accomplishments and status, when they dont recognized us.
