Membership in Tri Sigma is based solely on the membership standards as listed in the Rituals of Sigma Sigma Sigma. Position on Legacy Members A potential new member who is a legacy—defined as a sister, mother, daughter, granddaughter, niece, stepdaughter, stepmother, or stepsister of an initiated member—will not receive preferential treatment during the recruitment process. Sigma Sigma Sigma Sorority recognizes these special relationships; however, any legacy should be extended the same courtesy given to all recruitment guests. Position on Gender Identity A potential new member who self-identifies as a woman shall be treated as a woman regardless of any other circumstance. Hazing Policy Hazing practices are against the law and shall have no part in a Sigma Sigma Sigma Sorority membership program, or any other chapter activities, as it is detrimental to the safety and well-being of members and the membership experience. This includes—but is not limited to—physically abusive and psychologically manipulative behaviors. Hazing is defined as any action taken or situation created, knowingly, whether on or off sorority premises, to produce mental or physical discomfort, embarrassment, harassment, ridicule, or an uncomfortable atmosphere. Such activities may include but are not limited to the following: use of alcohol; creation of excessive fatigue; physical or psychological shocks; engaging in public stunts or jokes; morally degrading or humiliating games and activities; scavenger hunts or quests that must be completed within a specific amount of time; late work sessions which interfere with regular class attendance or study time; and any other activities which are not consistent with the rules, policies, and regulations of the educational institution or the ritual, policies, and procedures of the national organization. Any member found accountable for hazing will be immediately terminated from membership. Chapters and members must also adhere to relevant state and local laws and campus hazing policies. Alcohol & Controlled Substances Alcohol Policy Tri Sigma prohibits the storage, use, or serving of alcohol in a sorority housing facility; purchasing alcohol with chapter funds; receiving alcohol as a sponsorship or partnership agreement; and giving alcohol as gifts as a part of any sorority-sponsored activity where collegiate members are present. Members must abide by applicable federal, state, or local laws, and campus policies at chapter functions and registered events. Serving alcohol at events where collegiate members are present is prohibited except at closed social events which comply with the procedures for events with alcohol. This alcohol policy is the personal responsibility of every collegiate and alumnae member and guest attending a collegiate event with alcohol. Controlled Substances Policy The term, “Controlled Substance,” refers to any drug or chemical that is illegal under the applicable state or local law to manufacture, sell, possess, or use outside the dispensation of a properly-licensed physician’s prescription. Members, new members, and guests may not possess, use, provide, distribute, sell and/or manufacture controlled substances while in Tri Sigma facilities or at any activity or event sponsored or endorsed by the chapter. Any collegiate member or new member found to have violated this policy through the collegiate accountability processes may be terminated immediately from membership.

On April 20, 1898, a sisterhood emerged from the dreams and determination of eight visionary young women in Farmville, Virginia. This group of pioneering women set out to create a steadfast bond that has withstood the test of time.

This group of pioneering women set out to create a steadfast bond that has withstood the test of time. National Archives Tri Sigma’s National Archives exists to safeguard and preserve the records of the sorority, ensuring that our history and heritage is maintained. Materials are identified, acquired, stored, preserved, and made available to members as is safe and practical for the integrity of the materials. LEARN MORE Our Insignia COAT OF ARMS Sketched by Harriet Hankins, Alpha, around 1902, the significance of the Coat of Arms is revealed to members following their initiation. SYMBOL Adopted as the official symbol at the 1974 Convention, the sails always appear full to represent an empowered sisterhood that is always moving forward. FLOWER The official flower is the purple violet, as they were in bloom in Farmville at the time of our founding and were gathered the morning of the first initiation ceremony. JEWEL Although not official until 1909, the pearl has been our designated jewel since our founding and first appeared formally on the member badge in 1903. EMBLEM The skull & crossbones appear on our member badge. It symbolizes our closed motto which is known only to initiated members. BADGE Adopted in 1903, the badge design is reflective of the Triangle Degree—Tri Sigma’s second degree of membership—and is worn only by initiated members. Our Founders In 1898, Margaret Lee Batten, Louise Marie Davis, Martha Trent Featherston, Isabella Merrick, Sallie Jackson Michie, Lelia Scott, Elizabeth Watkins, and Lucy Wright embarked on a mission to forge a sisterhood grounded in the unbreakable bond of friendship. Click any of the images above to learn more about our Founders. Margaret Lee Batten Born September 11, 1882, in Smithfield, Virginia, Margaret’s never-ending smile made her the sunshine of the Sigmas. Though quite regal, she was known for her dancing skills, extensive wardrobe, and impressive strength. As a young widow and mother, she went on to pursue a career in hotel industry. Her genuine love of people made her an overwhelming success. She entered Omega Chapter in 1960 while residing in Washington, D.C. Louise Marie Davis Born in August of 1880 in Cumberland County, Virginia, Louise received her early education at home under the direction of a governess. That home would later become a popular place for Sigma visitors. As a student, she enjoyed the athletic program, tennis, long walks, and practicing perfect posture by marching around the gymnasium with a hymnbook on her head. Though a bout with the German measles delayed her graduation by a year and a half, she still had many fond memories of her college days. She later married and had had three children before entering Omega Chapter in 1963 while residing in in Warhill, Virginia. Martha Trent Featherston Born November 18, 1878, in Roanoke, Virginia, Martha was born in the Surrender House at the infamous Appomattox Courthouse. Better known as “Pat,” she was demure, dignified, and much loved by her peers. Despite her serious demeaner, she had quick wit about her. She taught a variety of ages and subjects during her long 41-year teaching career. Martha entered Omega Chapter in 1972 while residing in Prince Edward, Virginia. Isabella Noyce Merrick A direct descendant of the heir apparent of King Edward III of England, Isabella was born May 18, 1879, in Charlottesville, Virginia. Described as lovable and a good student, Isabella was perhaps our most mischievous Founder. She admittedly snuck a few visits with boys during the week—despite school rules—and enjoyed the occasional claret ice, a type of wine cooler for the time. She trained and showed horses—and even rode to school on horseback! Being able to earn her own living was a priority for Isabella. She taught at a nearby school before getting married, moving to North Carolina, and raising her son. Though the exact date is unknown, Isabella entered Omega Chapter sometime after December 21, 1969. Sallie Jackson Michie Sallie was born at her family’s home—known as Monticello’s Bel Aire—on February 6, 1883, in Earlysville, Virginia. A bright and diligent student, Sallie graduated college with top honors at 16 and was the youngest girl to ever graduate from the Normal School! Though sometimes quiet, her fun-loving nature was a welcomed surprise to everyone she met. She taught in Virginia and Georgia for 10 years, before marrying and moving to New York City. During World War I, she worked for the Army Air Corps in Washington, D.C., and continued until her retirement in 1943. She entered Omega Chapter on January 2, 1974. Lelia Agnes Scott Lelia was born April 12, 1880, in Amelia, Virginia. Studious and seemingly older than her years, Lelia was a gifted student and excelled in mathematics. Her room became the gathering place as the Founders first planned their secret society before taking place in the privacy of the left wing of Professional Hall. She graduated from the Normal School in 1898 alongside Martha, Lucy, and Sallie, and was referred to as “the greatest of our class” in the yearbook by the class prophet. On June 19, 1913, Lelia became the first Sigma to enter Omega Chapter. Elizabeth Egerton Watkins Born July 6, 1881, in Old Point Comfort, Virginia, Elizabeth was described as small and dainty. She served as the associate editor of the 1899 issue of the Normal Light yearbook and was roommates with Margaret and Lucy. She loved teaching and taught public school in Hampton prior to her marriage and becoming a mother to three daughters. Elizabeth was the only Founder to marry a Hampden-Sydney graduate. Her husband Harry Houston, Pi Kappa Alpha, served as Speaker of the House in the Virginia Legislature. She entered Omega Chapter on August 13, 1964, while residing in Hampton, Virginia. Lucy Elizabeth Wright Lucy was born Jan. 27, 1880, at Clover Dale Farm in James City County, Virginia. A natural scholar, she started college on her 16th birthday in 1896 and graduated three years later. She was the chapter's first chief officer and excelled in many activities, including tennis and cycling. She was a skilled seamstress, and (rumor has it) one of the dresses she designed was so popular, she borrowed a sewing machine and made and sold several duplicates for 25-cents each. Upon graduation, she accepted a principalship at Hickory Neck Academy where she remained until she married. The birth of her son Robert W. James made her the first Sigma mom. She entered Omega Chapter January 28, 1960, in Richmond, Virgina. Team Tri Sigma Each triennium, six members are elected to Executive Council to guide the strategic plan of Tri Sigma. The National Headquarters staff works to ensure the day-to-day operational needs of the organization and strategic goals are met. Together, through a team of national and collegiate chapter volunteers, we work hard to enhance the Tri Sigma experience for all members. EXECUTIVE COUNCIL NHQ STAFF JOB LISTINGS National Headquarters Tri Sigma’s base of operations is located in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. With 75% of Tri Sigma’s full-time NHQ staff working remotely across 12 states, the NHQ serves as an administrative hub and houses our extensive archives collection. For more information about NHQ’s relocation, visit our FAQ. VIEW NHQ FAQ Our Beginnings Inspired by their Greek-letter friends at nearby Hampden-Sydney College, our eight Founders first cemented their ties of friendship by forming the S.S.S. Club while at the State Female Normal School (now Longwood University). A year later, surrounded by candlelight and purple violets picked from the nearby woods, Sigma Sigma Sigma held its first initiation on April 20, 1898. By the next decade, Tri Sigma had grown to eight collegiate chapters in five states, and 18 alumnae chapters. More than 125 years and 140,000 initiated members later, Tri Sigma still empowers women to change the world through the guiding values of wisdom, power, faith, hope, and love.

Tri Sigma’s vast network of staff and volunteers spans the United States and works year-round to provide programs and services to collegiate and alumnae members. While Tri Sigma National Headquarters is located in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, 100% of NHQ staff work remotely across the U.S. To keep members informed of our recent move, we compiled a list of questions in our FAQ below. Mail to National Headquarters and the Foundation should be addressed to 1506 E. Franklin St., Suite 300, Chapel Hill, NC 27514. Visit our Contact Us page for more information or to send us a message. What happened to the Walton House? The COVID-19 pandemic prompted many societal changes. Organizations across all industries and sectors—including NPC organizations—began rethinking the use of physical office spaces. In 2021, Executive Council sought a detailed, third-party feasibility study to revisit the physical space needs of NHQ. It was determined that two buildings totaling12,240 square feet were no longer needed to meet Tri Sigma’s space needs. After extensive discussion and review of the findings—as well as a review of previous feasibility studies—Executive Council has determined it is in the best long-term financial interest of Tri Sigma to sell both Walton House and the adjacent administrative offices located in Woodstock, Virginia. While listed as separate properties, a local resident and long-time admirer of the Walton House purchased both in the spring of 2024. A more detailed overview can be found in the most recent issue of The Triangle . How was Chapel Hill selected? Tri Sigma owns a property in Chapel Hill that previously housed Tri Sigma’s Delta Delta Chapter. As the chapter is no longer active on the campus of UNC-Chapel Hill, it will provide an efficient transition of operations, accommodate the ever-evolving needs of our membership, and provide the space needed to house and showcase Tri Sigma’s archives collection. The first floor of the property in Chapel Hill is ADA-compliant and close in proximity to a major airport. This will make travel to NHQ more accessible to staff, volunteers, and other visitors. Its close proximity to three major universities will also provide expanded opportunities for larger in-person meetings and events. While we are still excited to move into this property, we aren’t there just yet. We have secured a small office space in Chapel Hill to temporarily house our base of operations while the house’s current occupants finish their rental agreement and minor updates and renovations can be made to accommodate our space needs. What happens if the Delta Delta Chapter re-establishes at UNC–Chapel Hill? The closure agreement between Tri Sigma and UNC-Chapel Hill states that the possibility for re-establishment will occur no sooner than 2029. A return to campus after that time will only occur when conditions are mutually ideal for both the university and Tri Sigma. When and if that opportunity becomes available in the future, we will explore whatever new or existing housing options are needed to make Tri Sigma competitive on campus. What about the history of the Walton House? Walton House will always be an important part of Tri Sigma’s history. We look forward to ensuring it is featured and celebrated in our permeant archives collection. We don’t have to have a physical administrative space in Virginia to celebrate our connection there. As the home of several collegiate and alumnae chapters—as well as thousands of individual members—Tri Sigma will continue to have a thriving presence in the Mother of States. It may surprise you to learn that—contrary to popular belief—Mabel Lee did not grow up at Walton House, nor was it given to Tri Sigma after her death. Known as Muhlenberg Hall in the National Register of Historic Places, the house was built for her brother in 1914—10 years after Mabel Lee became a Sigma. It was never owned by Mabel Lee, nor was it donated to Tri Sigma. Following the 1962 Convention, Tri Sigma purchased the home the following year and renamed it the Mabel Lee Walton House. The Walton House Board summed it up perfectly in their statement regarding the move: Our Heart Home is a grand old lady who deserves to be treated with love and care. Unfortunately, the costs associated with such care have become beyond the reach of practicality, especially when coupled with the limited demand for the use of the property by Sigmas. This is a difficult decision for all of us on the Walton House Board. We love Walton House, but we love Sigma more . A place where people have shared love and laughter is a sacred place and we will always love Walton House. But what made Walton House special was the people who visited it. Those bonds of sisterhood will remain along with our fond memories. The Walton House Board stands in support of our sisters on Executive Council in their decision to sell Walton House. How will our legacy be preserved? In addition to the exciting opportunities ahead of us to showcase our archives in person, Tri Sigma has invested in a digital magazine archive to make historical information accessible to members across the country. This—coupled with the Oral History Project—has made it possible for members to revisit our past without the time and expense of traveling to a small town in rural Virginia. It’s also important to note that, while Woodstock has been the longest-running and most significant home of Tri Sigma’s base of operations, it was not the first. Prior to Sigma’s purchase of the Walton House in the 1960s, the national office had previously moved to wherever the current national president lived. Tri Sigma’s legacy is more than a building—it is 125 years of sisterhood which extend far beyond Walton House. What happened to all the furnishings, displays and gifts to Walton House? We are happy to share that the bunk beds have been donated to a nonprofit organization called GAP in the Shenandoah Valley. GAP—which stands for Grandparents as Parents—is a group of grandparents and other relatives raising children unable to live with their birth parents. Each family has their own story of how they returned to parenting once again, be it from issues related to abuse, neglect, abandonment, or the death of one or both parents. Volunteers for GAP were extremely grateful to receive this donation and assured us they would be put to good use. Some of the furnishings purchased for specific rooms of the Walton House have been sold to the buyer and will remain at 225 N. Muhlenberg. The NHQ sign and commemorative bricks have been relocated to our future property in Chapel Hill. I am a member—why didn't I receive the announcement email?

Our Impact The words “To receive much, you must give much” hold a special place in the hearts of our members. Through fundraising, advocacy, and volunteerism we extend our reach beyond chapter walls. Sigmas empower those around them to make a profound impact on the world and create positive change that is both powerful and undeniable. Sigma Serves Children Since 1951, Tri Sigma has dedicated itself to serving children’s health initiatives. This legacy began with funding polio research through our first national philanthropic partner, the Robbie Page Memorial Fund. After polio was eradicated, that mission shifted toward funding emotional support resources for hospitalized children known as “play therapy.” This cutting-edge treatment uses music, art, animals, games and other forms of play to help children cope with difficult emotions and better understand their illnesses and cope with the treatments they must undergo. Tri Sigma Foundation Through generous member donations and funds raised by collegiate and alumnae chapters, the Foundation’s Robbie Page Memorial Fund awards grants to hospitals, clinics, and research and therapeutic play programs in our local communities. The Foundation also funds scholarships and important leadership and development efforts. March of Dimes Partnership Tri Sigma National Sorority is a proud partner of the March of Dimes. From advocacy work and raising awareness in our communities to making baby blankets and donating items to the March of Dimes’ Military Baby Shower program, Sigmas of all generations work tirelessly to ensure children (and their moms!) have a fighting chance for bright, healthy futures.

Tri Sigma is dedicated to fostering a safe, supportive environment. Our commitment to harm reduction empowers members to make responsible choices and look out for one another. Culture of Caring Tri Sigma is dedicated to fostering a safe, supportive environment. Our commitment to harm reduction empowers members to make responsible choices and look out for one another. Harm Reduction Tri Sigma is committed to preventing high-risk behavior and takes a health promotion approach when educating students and advisors. The national organization upholds the following philosophy toward harm reduction: The sorority urges all members to practice the principles of personal dignity, self-discipline, and dedication to social standards worthy of Tri Sigma. Through education, training, and mature adult guidance, we provide the tools to help students make responsible healthy choices and to understand the consequences of their choices. The organization will hold chapters and individual chapter members accountable for the choices they make. The sorority expects personal responsibility from its members and accountability through local chapter procedures. Harm reduction is less about policies and more about taking care of one another, creating a culture of care, and caring enough to confront another member if they demonstrate harmful unhealthy behaviors. This program has been recognized with the CPN Seal of Prevention, an honor awarded to institutions of higher education and fraternity/sorority organizations that have demonstrated leadership in digital prevention programming focused on student safety, well-being, and inclusion. To help members recognize these harmful behaviors and to provide outlets for reporting, the following health promotion education is provided to Tri Sigma collegiate members. Prevention This multi-module health promotion program is grounded in Tri Sigma’s Member Development framework and core values. The program focuses on: Alcohol and the body – Alcohol use, how it impacts the body, and ways that individuals can make smarter and healthier choices regarding alcohol consumption. Anti-hazing – Tri Sigma’s definition of hazing, the nuances of hazing, and how members can recognize and respond to hazing behaviors within Tri Sigma. Cannabis – An in-depth lesson on cannabis use—including the different chemicals at play and how they interact with the body—and legal, regulatory, and policy considerations. Responding to sexual and relationship violence – An introduction to these concepts with a focus on empathy and understanding, practicing survivor support skills, trauma–informed approaches that may influence individual responses, and resources available through Tri Sigma to help members take action. Prescription and other drugs – Information on social norms information, the primary, secondary, and long-term effects of use, and strategies to respond to concerning behaviors. Mental Wellbeing This program provides an introduction to mental health topics, including: How mental health and wellbeing can influence one’s collegiate experience Tools to support personal wellbeing This module will place added emphasis on trust building, vulnerability, and protective factors associated with personal and collective wellbeing. Reducing High-Risk Behaviors In-person experiential programming is provided to student leaders and collegiate chapters. Click on each program name to learn more about our offerings. Prevention Institute The Prevention Institute is an in-person program focused on helping students develop the skills needed to create their own local prevention plan, including chapter retreats to proactively prevent high-risk behaviors within their chapter. This program won the 2020 AFA/CoHEASAP Award for Outstanding Alcohol/Other Drug Prevention Program. Winning programs must demonstrate creativity and overall effectiveness in alcohol/other drug abuse awareness and education or leadership that supports the elimination of high-risk drinking behavior. Prevention Education Debrief Guides Collegiate chapters receive ongoing education to help reinforce concepts introduced to new members. Members complete the e-learning content individually, and National Headquarters provides chapters with debrief guides to dive deeper into the content and apply the lessons to their daily lives. Sigmas Striving for Safety In addition to facilitating the Prevention Institute, SAFE Team volunteers assist assigned chapters with a harm reduction program for all chapter members. The goal is for each chapter to receive a proactive visit each triennium. The half-day program focuses on engaging all members in being harm reductionists, building communication and conflict resolution skills, and identifying and confronting high-risk behaviors in their community. STRIDES Program Collegiate chapters that violate the National Policies of Sigma Sigma Sigma are placed on a 4-step Chapter Supervision Program. If a chapter struggles to follow sorority or university policies, a 3-day STRIDES program (Sigma Training on Risk – Intervention, Member Development, and Chapter Evaluation for Success) is hosted by the SAFE Team and utilizes Appreciative Inquiry to guide the chapter through their challenges to create positive change. Tri Sigma won the Association of Fraternity/Sorority Advisors (AFA) Oustanding Change Initiative Award in 2020 for our work on the STRIDES program. This award recognizes major initiatives or long-term plans that have led to positive changes within the campus fraternity and sorority community or the inter/national organization and measured improvements, results, and positive outcomes. Taking Action Tri Sigma is proud to participate in National Hazing Prevention Week and sponsor the Anti-Hazing Hotline—an anonymous, toll-free number anyone can call to report hazing. We encourage all sisters, new members, parents, etc. to call (888) 668-4293 if you have any concerns about hazing on your campus. To report a chapter concern, complete this online form . It is our standard practice to keep those who report concerns anonymous; however, it is helpful to know the submitter’s name and email for any follow-up questions.
