Sorors,
I have another comment and reply about wearing your nalia and proudly representing Sigma. On Sunday, August 19, 2001 the class (Singles Sunday School) got on the subject of being a witness for Christ and proudly sharing your love for Him by using bglo as the example. The Sunday school teacher was taking a poll of how many greeks were in the class of about 30 and their were 11 people that happened to be in sororities, by the way no of the gentlemen in the class were greek, anyway there were 4 akas, 4 deltas, 1 zeta and two Sgrhos in the class. Our teacher made a mistake and called one of the deltas an aka and the conversation, let's just say changed. Both of these organizations basically wanted to explain why they thought their organization was the best, etc. However, at the end of the class one of the deltas walked up to me and said, I didn't know you were a SGRho. Eventhough she parks right next to me and she sees the nalia on my car and she always sees me with other sorors at the church. She was ready to categorize me as being a stereotype of one of the two "bigger organizations" at first I was taken back by this but then I decided to turn this negative statement into a positve one. She went on to ask me why I became a member of Sigma and I told her about the true long lasting sisterhood, the fact that the founders survived on this historically white campus during the heart of segregation, the community service, dependability of my sorors and the love that we have for Sigma. The delta ended our conversation by saying that maybe this is why her younger sister is a SGRho. We had a very pleasant conversation and I am glad that she and the other ladies now know what SGRho is about.
The moral of this story is to always keep a level head and never disrespect yourself by being upset by the way other greeks tend to disregard our true sisterhood.proudly represent Sigma
