The History of Phi Sigma Sigma

In 1913, our Founders approached the Dean of Women at Hunter College in New York City with a vision. They wanted to start a sorority that would promote open membership to all women of character, regardless of one's race or religious background. They wanted a sorority committed to sisterhood, excellence in scholarship and selfless giving. On November 26, 1913, Phi Sigma Sigma was established. In 1996, Phi Sigma Sigma was born on Nova Southeastern University's campus. The ladies of Phi Sigma Sigma live by the motto "Aim High", translated by the Greek, Diokete Hupsala. Our colors are King Blue and Gold and our favorite flower is the American Beauty Rose. It is our mission to inspire the personal development of each sister and perpetuate the advancement of womanhood.
