The 90th Sigma Kappa national convention was held in Denver at the end of June. The event included the opportunity to see sisters after many years apart, vote on Bylaws revisions, be introduced to a more inclusive Ritual, celebrate sisters during award presentations, and attend educational sessions. Read below for a few highlights. Additional information will be shared in the autumn issue of the Sigma Kappa Triangle.
Thank you to all those who attended. We are so glad you were able to join us as we celebrated our successes, highlighted new initiatives and partnerships, and reunited with one another after spending so much time apart.
