Gamma Sigma Sigma National Sorority History
In October of 1952, representatives from Boston University, Brooklyn College, Drexel Institute of Technology, Los Angeles City College, New York University, Queens College, University of Houston and University of Miami met at Beekman Towers in New York City to organize a national service sorority. The group drafted a constitution, elected officers, selected symbols, and adopted a name for their organization. Gamma Sigma Sigma, a national service sorority based on the ideals of Service, Friendship, and Equality was formed.
Gamma Sigma Sigma has had an enormous impact on college and university campuses nationwide. Since its inception over forty five years ago, sorority members have contributed millions of hours of community and campus service.
Through Gamma Sigma Sigma, members find the opportunity to serve others in the community while experiencing the benefits of being part of a sorority.
