Sigma Lambda Gamma's Five Principles
Integrity
We believe the women in our sorority should have a sense of integrity, we expect sisters to have high moral principles to differentiate between what is right and wrong. That when an injustice is done they hold accountability for their actions,use it as a learning experience and grow from it. We expect sisters to treat each other with respect, dignity and acceptance. We have no tolerance for discrimination within our sisterhood, and any form of it will be take very seriously.
Diversity
The women in our sorority come from different cultures, backgrounds, experiences, sexual orientations etc. We believe in embracing this diversity and taking pride in it. A Sigma Lambda Gamma woman should be well rounded and accepting of people, from different walks of life. She is curious about learning other peoples cultures, experiences and continues to embrace her own diversity as well as others. We want women who are different in more that one way, we desire to have sisters who embrace each others and their own differences.
Academics
Academics are a high priority for us, we believe education should always be prioritized. We make sure that we are on top of our school work and put in time to focus on our studies. A Sigma Lambda Gamma woman takes genuine interest in her academics and tries her best to accomplish her goals. We want to make sure all the sisters and young woman who are looking to join us strive to be exceptional students and are invested in their academic career.
Social Interaction
Everyone has different levels of social interaction, some are quiet introverts while we have sisters that are complete extroverts. When it comes to social interaction we desire to have young women in our sisterhood that want to be around us and other people. This can mean different things such as going to parties, mixers, study dates or coffee dates with sisters or other Greeks. We as sisters try our best to grow in our skills and expose ourselves to different social situations. What we look for in a young woman is someone who enjoys the company of others and has the desire to reach out and grow socially.
Community Involvement
We are advocates for community service, we have sisters that volunteer in pet shelters, hospitals, in the university, retirement homes, food banks etc. We love to volunteer and we hope you do to! We encourage the value of being philanthropic within our sorority and try to help out the community in any way we can. We fundraise, hold dinners and auctions where all proceeds go towards different organizations. In our sisterhood we are looking for women that have a passion for helping the community in big or small ways, anything counts!
