Our Founding Mothers created Sigma Theta Psi Sorority, Inc. on November 13, 1991 at San Jose State University. These eighteen visionary women came together to fill a void of multicultural awareness on their campus. They sought to create a sisterhood that would embrace and celebrate cultural diversity, and that was rooted in the shared principles of respect, honesty, open-mindedness, loyalty, leadership, and academic excellence.
Since its founding, Sigma Theta Psi has remained a sisterhood unparalleled by any other. Our multicultural sorority is a well-organized society of dedicated and goal-oriented women, and continues to grow strong today. Today, Sigma Theta Psi has nine chapters at the top universities and colleges in California and Nevada, including San Jose State University, San Diego State University, the University of Southern California,(Long Beach-Reserved), Stanford University, Mt. Saint Mary's College, California State University at Monterey Bay, University of Nevada at Las Vegas, and California State University at Sacramento.
Sigma Theta Psi Sorority, Inc. is an academic and social sorority. It is a unity of women that recognizes the trials of new and continuing students, and assists them in reaching their full potential as leaders in their communities.Encouragement is offered in every aspect of moral, academic and social support, as well as developing life-long friendships.
