The Sisterhood of Delta Sigma Psi was founded on the campus of San Diego State University on December 12, 1998. It was organized by five dedicated sisters who collaborated to create a sorority that focuses on Scholastic Achievement, Social Interaction, Community Service, and Asian and Cultural Awareness. The Alpha Chapter of Delta Sigma Psi prides itself in strengthening the bonds of friendship and sisterhood. It was through the initial bonds of friendship that brought together Founding Mother Abigail Banag Rex, Founding Mother Michelle Nguyen, Founding Mother Kim Phan, Founding Mother Caterina Romano, and Founding Mother Charlotte Salvacion. The sorority functions as a whole because each sister is individually unique, and without one another, the sisterhood bond is incomplete. The sisters of Delta Sigma Psi wish to incorporate a lifelong journey of promoting friendship and sisterhood as they embark on their college education.
Purpose:
The sorority exists to foster a better understanding of life, both on and off campus, by enriching the college experience. We strive to promote the highest levels of integrity, honor, and appreciation through the links of sisterhood.
