NO NPC SORORITY HAS AN OFFICIAL "BROTHER/SISTER" RELATIONSHIP WITH A FRATERNITY ON AN INTER/NATIONAL LEVEL. Sororities may have relationships on a campus by campus level, but no NPCs have an official relationship with a fraternity. Having one may jeopardize the single-sex status (according to what I've read).

The only official relationship I know of is Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. and Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. Members of the NPHC, they share a constitutional bond.

No, it's not. There's no brother fraternity. No NPC sorority has a "brother" fraternity.

AW OTW beat me to it, but she does do a better job.

And they won't let you forget it.

Some of us don't need a piece of paper to tell us who our siblings are.

A Kappa Sigma helped write Tri-Sigma's ritual--that might be what the OP is asking about.

As a member (and national volunteer) of Tri Sigma, let me inform you that yes, while a member of Kappa Sigma did assist us in our founding, we have NO "brother fraternity." If you're a Sigma and you're asking this, whoever happened to tell you that we have one is wrong. Thank you.

Yes, the dash is actually one of my pet peeves.

Why don't you go ask those chapters?

Copied from the Sigma Sigma Sigma website:

Each initiated member receives the latest edition of Tri Sigma's story, The Years Remembered of Sigma Sigma Sigma; The Path from Farmville, which chronicles the beginning of each collegiate chapter as well as the evolution of our National Organization.


I thought this was super cool! My chapter has a bound copy of The Quarterly, (Alpha Gam's magazine) that contains articles on different chapters being colonized but I would love to have something like Tri-Sigma. I felt old that I knew some of the Gamma Tau founders, lol.

Maybe. It depends on the chapters themselves. Why do you want to know?
