Delta Sigma Theta and U of Alabama -a connection?
Good evening, ladies. I have a question.
I have a friend who attends U of Alabama. One of their school colors is crimson and their mascot is the elephant. There's a sorority on my campus called Delta Sigma Theta. One of their colors is crimson and they have an elephant as their symbol. I have a question. Is there any connection? Was Delta founded there?

YES! You are so astute!
In 1942, seven women known as the Carnations of Delta Sigma Theta established the sorority at Alabama.

The Greek Life mods should move this thread over to the DST forum. You should go ask the ladies of DST there.

Are they nice over there? I am sometimes intimidated by too many girls from the same sorority hanging around each other.

And when we get initiated? The zoo gives each of us our own elephants to have forever and ever. Amen!

1) I thought I was the only person who said "Forever and ever. Amen!"
2) Now, do you "adopt" the elephants and visit them at the zoo? Or do you get to actually keep them?
Your Carnations must be proud!

We only pay $1 per year to board them at the zoo, but yes they are ours to keep forever and ever. Amen. Our initiation ceremony takes place at the zoo and if your chapter does at least 40,000 hours of services each year? Your $1 is waived and the chapter gets a free trip to Africa.
And our jewel? The tusk of an elephant on barbed wire to display our real STRENGTH.
