However for the more recent themes, I'm running into an odd confusion on the themes for the last two conventions, 2006 in Philadelphia and 2008 in Orlando. I've found different sites claiming that the Theme for each one was "One Mission, One Sisterhood: Empowering Communities Through Committed Service". Some claim it is the one for 2006, others for 2008.

Can I get help figuring out which one is correct, the theme for the other convention and the themes for any convention between the Golden Jubilee in 1963 and the convention in Atlanta in 2002? (Las Vegas in 2004 was "Keeping the Connection, Building on the Past and Focusing on the Future" as best as I have been able to research)

I believe it was the same for both years...or at least very close.

I think so, too, because it was the administration's theme.

So it was the theme for both conventions because Soror Louise A. Rice was president going into both conventions and it was the theme that the National Board had under her leadership?

Please refer to her as Dr. Louise A. Rice. To refer to a Delta as Soror is reserved for Deltas only.
