F.A.Q.

What is a sorority?
A sorority is a group of women bound together by sisterhood and common goals and aspirations. The members that form a sorority share their efforts, friendship and knowledge. Together, these members learn, grow, and make the Greek organization stronger. Their common experience builds ties that last a lifetime. This forms a sisterhood amongst members which helps to develop strong and creative leadership, leading to success. Though there are many different sororities, they all share common founding principles. Greek organizations enhance your educational experience by emphasizing intellectual, interpersonal and social development. The ideals of lifelong friendship, sound education, campus and community service, and social interaction are what Greek members strive to live by every day.

What is Recruitment (AKA Rush) ?

Recruitment is the time when Sororities seek and recruit new members. The recruitment events are at different times. Recruitment is a time when students have an opportunity to visit the groups and see what each has to offer.

If I go through Recruitment, do I have to join?

No. Recruitment is a time to see what Greek life can offer you! Going through Recruitment and its functions does not commit you to joining. We strongly suggest that you go around the UW campus and get to know all the different organizations before making your decision.

Do you have to live in a sorority house?

At this time our sorority does not have a house; therefore many girls often live at home, in the dorms, or apartments. Living in a house does not constitute being in a sorority - the foundation of our sorority is built on the quality of our sisterhood, not a house.

Y Gamma?

As Gammas, we are committed to serving our community and country by developing to our full potential and always achieving our goals.

  1. ★ Lifelong commitment and support.

  2. ★Academic and moral support that will help you succeed at UW.

  3. ★Learn more about yourself and others.

  4. ★Create memories that will last a lifetime.

  5. ★Largest, fastest growing Latina-based Multicultural National Sorority.

  6. ★A nation full of sisters. 5,000+ and growing.

Throughout the school year, the sorority sponsors campus events in celebration of our five principles. The planning of these events gives sisters the opportunity to develop leadership and academic abilities by writing proposals, developing budgets, securing funding and advertising.

Networking Opportunities

Sigma Lambda Gamma offers an amazing opportunity to meet and network with other college women from campuses across the country. An added advantage of joining the largest Latina-based sorority in the nation is that you have access to our extensive chapter base. Both undergrads and alumni serve as a resource for career and academic advice.

Academics

A recent study found that students participating in a Greek organization have a higher college graduation rate than non-Greeks. As members, our number one goal is our education. We hold our members to high academic standards. We also provide our members with academic resources necessary to succeed in college, such as test banks, weekly study hour requirements and study groups.

Cultural Awareness

Sigma Lambda Gamma is a diverse sorority encompassing all ethnic backgrounds and is open to strong, determined and hardworking women. As an inclusive organization, we encourage all ethnicities to inquire about our organization to help us learn more about their culture and for us to share our own. We feel the exchange of other cultures is just as valuable as our emphasis on the Latino culture.

Community Service

Giving back and reaching out to our community is a huge part of being a sister. The sisters of SLG at UW do many various community service projects. From cleaning up the streets to volunteering for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, SLG is always looking to help out the community in some way.
