Sigma Kappa

[shopgirl]

I love to hear what people think of Sigma Kappa across the country...However...you guys are not putting which schools you are referring to. ULChiOCutie...are you from the University of Louisville?

To ULChiOCutie...

The reason most Sig Kaps come and go to frat houses in groups is because that many of our chapters have policies of "safety in numbers" so that members don't get "left behind" at a party after they have been drinking or just left behind without a ride home in general. Basically, we keep tabs on each other and cover each others backs. It might look silly from time to time, but our girls never get "left" and have to bum a ride home from someone they met that night or pass out on someone's couch (like some girls on our campus do) to have God knows what happen to them.

Well put SigKapAdvisor...

The Sig K chapter in my school Kansas State is possibly the worst house on campus. During my pledge semester we did homecoming with them and the represnted themselves very badly. They also had the smallest recruiment class for the fall of 2000 with only 16 while the other 10 sorities averaged 50. the also have the nickname of sigma cattle.

Ashshades...YIKES!!!

That's not good...
Do you know about the chapter at the University of Kansas?
Thanks.

I am a student at the University of Tennessee and I just wanted to say that SIGMA KAPPA ROCKS!!! My chapter kicks some serious tail in a lot of things, and we are liked by everyone. We are all extremly nice and down to earth. Once you go Sig Kap you can't go back!
Love in the Dove,

AlphaSigLana,

Please use more discretion when posting about other sororities. If you wish to speak negatively about a chapter at your school, please do so with more class and refrain from speaking of any "sexual favors" that may have occurred. You never know who's watching these boards! Always remember that you are a representation of your sorority.

I have to agree with OTW...especially since there are a few Greeks on here from Colorado and you never know who knows whom. "They're not my favorites" would have more than sufficed.

[shopgirl]

AlphaSigLana,

WOW!!! No really, say what's on your mind!
(I'm just being sarcastic) I'm sorry that your experience with Sigma Kappa has been so negative. Please remember that every chapter is different.

OTW & 33Girl,

I would like to thank you both for visiting the Sigma Kappa forum and for responding to the negative post. I appreciate your concern for this and all forums on GC.

Greek Love,
Christina

All SK’s should be very pleased with the group of girls that comprise Sigma Kappa at the University of Louisville charter. I have had the fortune to be excellent friends with numerous girls of the chapter. It’s true what ULChiOCutie said, campus-wide they are very middle-ground. They are very even, they have their great athletes, but they have their fill of not such great athletes, which make up the scholars, or the partiers, which are all part of the mix, and all essential (in some aspect, or another!). Yet evenness is strong, and long-lasting, thus you can expect this chapter to remain strong for a good deal of time onward.

As an incidental, because it’s going to be quite ironical in light of my next point concerning Sigma Kappa, ULChiOCutie I believe to be an ex-girlfriend of mine (2 years as a freshman and sophomore in high school). Just a note to add to my verbose speech here-in.

I have, unfortunately, caused some slight internal turmoil for the sorority. I dare not venture to say that I have caused sisters to spite sisters, I feel their bond is stronger than anything I could ever sever (with or without intention), however I caused a tear or two to be shed. Which is why I can tell you anything inquired about the character of a Sigma Kappa. I’ve quasi-dated four from UofL, and I’m only in my second year. I’m still quite good of friends with each of the girls that either broke-up with me, or I broke-up with. They are not girls to be termed “easy” or “sluttish” by any means. They are, as it’s been said universally, yet accordingly, down-to-earth girls with the appearance of the girl next door.

The girls here are good, and I’ve had people call me an SK groupie, because over hlf of my girlfriends, in the literal sense of the word girl friend, are in Sigma Kappa at University of Louisville.

I just wanted all my Sigma Kappa sisters out there to know that i love them, and i am so proud to be a sigma kappa. i am never ashamed to wear my letters. we have a strong reputation nationaly, and sure a few people may not like us, but that's thier opinion. the point is to be proud of who you are. i am proud to be a sigma kappa and if i could go through rush all over again i would pick the same place.

Hi, I am a Kappa at Babson College out in Boston. I was reading the posts on the Sigma Kappa page because the only other sorority on our campus is Sigma Kappa. It's difficult because there are only two sororities on campus and we often have disagreements - however - I can't believe some of the things I have read on these posts. Why would you say horrible things about these lovely girls on their own post? Every single chapter of every sorority is completely different, just like every college campus has a different mix of people. I get incredibly frustrated with people who make generalizations about sororities by one experience they have. I also get very frustrated with people who go onto public websites such as this one and bash a sorority that they don't even belong to. A sorority is something that can only be experienced. You can't sit here and tell me what Sigma Kappa is like when you don't even belong to that sorority. I have not always had the best experiences with all the Sigma's at my campus, but I can tell you that they are a very diverse group of girls, with such great intentions and they have a truely unique bond of sisterhood.
I guess I just feel that it's really inappropriate in the first place to ask a question like "what are sigma kappa's like" on thier own posts. What kind of answers were you expecting? This is a place for sisters to come and meet other sisters, get ideas and share thoughts, not for them to come online and see that people think they are snotty, or rude.
Well enough rambling for me, but I do want to say one last thing, these ladies are clearly classier than you who post nasty things about Sigma Kappa's, and I am proud of the way they handled your pathetic attacks at thier sorority.
I think you all are a great group of girls!

Sisterly love,

AlphaSigLana...

Thank you for your apology. I enthusiastically accept it.

onekeythatbindsus...

Thank you so much for your post. It was very thoughtful and kind.

ps The reason that this thread is in our forum is because it was moved from the Greek Life forum. Thank you for your concern, though.

Greek Love,
Christina

I went to a fairly large university with a big greek system and joined a sorority but i never liked sigma kappa because of one girl in the house. She would prank call me at all hours of the night and harass me at the bars for one reason....I USED to date her current boyfriend at the time. I went out with him a year before they met and his friends told me that she was intimidated by me. Her sorority sisters would torment me too because they were basically looking out for their sister but i really never liked that sorority after that year of hell she put me through. She was very immature
