CHAPTER ACTIVITIES & PROGRAMMING
All chapter meetings, gatherings and events must be held in accordance with state/province, local health and/or public health department and university directives. Should in-person events be permitted by the university, chapters must implement social distancing best practices and mitigate risk wherever possible. Chapter services managers will assist chapters in planning any events.
It is advised that the majority, if not all, chapter events are held virtually. Members will need to get creative and think outside of the confines of a "typical" event when planning the fall calendar. We are here to help brainstorm ideas or help you think through how to adjust a favorite event to fit the virtual format.
More than ever, we need to remain connected to one another. Observing social distancing best practices doesn't mean our sisters have to feel alone.
Learn more about virtual programming and the importance of connection.
CHAPTER ADMINISTRATION & FINANCES
Chapter Meetings – In-person chapter meetings have been transitioned into weekly/bi-weekly virtual meetings and emails to keep all members updated on the latest.
Executive Board & Executive Council - The executive board and executive council have a continued responsibility to carry out alternate virtual programming where possible.
Fall 2020 Chapter Finances – For the fall, we will be implementing a a financial model that is as flexible as possible, should there be a disruption to course delivery, chapter activities or the health and safety of our members. We are doing everything within our power to reduce expenses and restrict unnecessary spending to keep the sorority experience affordable for members and new members who were financially impacted due to COVID-19. Read more here.
Fall 2020 Statuses – Phi Sigma Sigma has expanded the use of our membership statuses to promote the retention of our current members, who stand to benefit from sisterhood and belonging now more than ever. Learn more about our different status offerings.
MANAGING POSITIVE COVID-19 CASES
On campuses where students are physically returning, it is expected that members will test positive for COVID-19. Should an advisor or a leader of the chapter become aware of a member who has tested positive, follow the university's protocol for isolating. Sisters who have been in contact with her should follow the university's protocol for quarantining.
You ISOLATE after a positive test. The isolation period is 10 calendar days from the positive test. You QUARANTINE after a known exposure or close contact with a person who has COVID-19. The quarantine period is 14 calendar days after the last known exposure.
Sisters affected will likely feel overwhelmed and scared. It is important that we continue to support them. We advise virtual check-ins on Zoom, coordinating meal delivery, etc. Chapter services managers will help you to create a support plan.
The archon should document any known positive cases on the Phi Sigma Sigma website. Each individual member who tests positive should follow state/province, local health and/or public health department and university directives to report cases as required.
HEALTH & SAFETY EXPECTATIONS
All members and new members are provided and asked to acknowledge the following expectations and can be held accountable by the chapter or the Fraternity:
-
I acknowledge that Phi Sigma Sigma recommends adherence to the guidelines provided by the CDC.
-
I acknowledge that Phi Sigma Sigma requires compliance with all state/province, local health and/or public health department, and university directives regarding attendance at events and participation in activities associated with the chapter, and that Phi Sigma Sigma requires compliance with all directives communicated by the owner or manager of any facility where an event or activity associated with the chapter is held.
-
I agree to wear a mask and/or maintain social distancing in accordance with state/province, local health and/or public health department, and/or university directives, as well as with directives communicated by the owner or manager of any facility where an event or activity associated with the chapter is held.
If Phi Sigma Sigma maintains a housing facility and/or any other type of chapter occupied space (collectively “facility”) at the university I am attending:
-
I will adhere to rules and procedures regarding food service, sleeping quarters, hosting of guests, including non-resident members, scheduling of study spaces, use of masks and social distancing in communal living areas and other stated expectations in order to keep myself and my sisters safe.
-
I will respect the health concerns of the house director, facility staff and other members in my interactions with them.
-
I understand that while precautions to clean the facility and provide procedures to assist with social distancing will be taken, it will be up to me, any permitted guests and other residents of the property to limit outside exposure and to follow guidelines suggested to protect against the spread of COVID-19.
-
I understand that by electing to live in, visit or enter the facility, I am agreeing to release the Fraternity, local house corporation, the NHC, and any other individual volunteer, advisor, employee or board member from liability associated with the risks inherent in a communal environment, including transmission of COVID-19 or any illness or injury associated with COVID-19.
CHAPTER HOUSING
The NHC has prepared their protocols with industry experts and modified plans to follow local and state health department guidelines. While we cannot guarantee that our facilities will be COVID-19 free, we are aggressively minimizing risks. Residents must be reminded that taking steps to reduce the risk of contracting COVID-19 is the shared responsibility of every resident in the facility.
Learn more about our updated housing protocol and how this effects guests, non-resident members, meal plans and individual facility plans on our fall housing webpage.

STAFF VISITS - INSTITUTES & TRAINING
Upcoming Fraternity Travel and Events
Phi Sigma Sigma Fraternity has eliminated all travel and in-person events through June 30, 2021.
Recruitment Support - All chapters will receive virtual recruitment support from a designated staff member or volunteer. Recruitment support personnel will provide ongoing support by working with chapters throughout planning all the way until bid day.
Training & Institutes - Institutes, officer and volunteer trainings will be hosted virtually through our online learning management system.
By registering and paying for a Founders’ Table brunch, you are committing to spend time with Phi Sigma Sigma sisters in your area for a couple hours of connection and sisterhood.
Alumnae and collegiate members in good standing facing severe and unforeseen financial distress during the current COVID 19 crisis. Members of Phi Sigma Sigma Supreme Council, Foundation Board or NHC Board, staff and family members of those are not eligible.
The chapter, members and guests must be in compliance with any and all applicable laws of the state, provincial and local laws.
Only people of legal drinking age may possess, consume, provide or be provided alcoholic beverages.
The chapter, members and guests must follow the federal or provincial law regarding illegal drugs and controlled substances. No person may possess, use, provide, distribute, sell and/or manufacture illegal drugs or other controlled substances while on chapter premises or at any activity or event sponsored or endorsed by the chapter.
When alcohol is present at an event hosted or co-hosted by a Phi Sigma Sigma chapter, it must either be:
Provided and sold on a per-drink basis by a licensed and insured third-party vendor (TPV; e.g., restaurant, bar, caterer, etc.) following Phi Sigma Sigma’s TPV Procedures; or
Brought by individual members and guests through Phi Sigma Sigma’s Bring Your Own Beverage (“BYOB”) Procedures.
Alcoholic beverages must not be purchased with chapter funds or funds pooled by members or guests (e.g., admission fees, cover fees, collecting funds through digital apps, etc.).
Unless served by a licensed and insured third-party vendor, common sources of alcohol, including bulk quantities, are prohibited. A bulk quantity is defined by any amount of alcohol greater than what a reasonable person should consume over the duration of an event.
Attendance by non-members at any event where alcohol is present must be by invitation only, and the chapter must utilize a guest list system. Attendance at events with alcohol is limited to a 2:1 maximum guest-to-member ratio and must not exceed local fire or building code capacity. Chapters requesting exceptions for events with alumnae or parents must request written permission from the executive director or designee prior to the event.
A chapter must not co-host or co-sponsor an event with a bar, event promoter or alcohol distributor. No chapter, member(s) and/or guest(s) may benefit from exclusive promotions, discounts or gifts in which alcohol is given away, discounted or provided to those present.
When hosting or co-sponsoring a fundraising event where alcohol is served the chapter may rent private room or space in a bar, restaurant or other licensed and insured third-party vendor. It must be a closed chapter event held within the provisions of this policy. Proceeds generated from the event must be independent and unrelated to alcohol sales.
A chapter must not co-host or co-sponsor, or in any way participate in, an activity or event with another group, entity or person(s) that purchases or provides alcohol.
Any event or activity related to the new member joining process will be substance free. No alcohol or illegal drugs may be present at any new member activity, meeting or ritual of the chapter; including but not limited to membership recruitment, bid day events, “big/little” or “family” events or activities and initiation.
No chapter member or guest may permit, encourage, coerce, glorify or participate in any activities involving the rapid consumption of alcohol, such as drinking games and shots.
The possession, use, sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages on the premises of any chapter house, suite or residence hall floor is prohibited.
If a college or university has stricter alcohol policy than outlined above, the chapter must follow the more restrictive policy including any restrictions on partnership/co-hosting with prohibited organizations.
Phi Sigma Sigma believes in member development – not hazing. The objective of member development is to develop a dynamic sisterhood. Member development should promote interest in Phi Sigma Sigma and be positive, informative and enjoyable. Member development should embody the principles of our ritual and virtues.
Hazing is against the law; therefore, all forms of hazing are prohibited.
Hazing is defined as any action taken or situation created, with or without consent, that intentionally or unintentionally causes mental or physical discomfort, embarrassment, harassment or ridicule, or potentially injures and/or endangers the life or safety of a member.
It is a responsibility of all members to report any hazing incidents to Phi Sigma Sigma Headquarters.
Grants range in the amount of $250 to $1000.
Email us immediately so that we can invite other members to join. Registration fees are non-refundable.
Phi Sigma Sigma was founded by a group of friends who at the time could not all join the same sorority because of their varying religious faiths. Phi Sigma Sigma maintains a non-sectarian based ritual.
Phi Sigma Sigma works towards perpetuating the advancement of womanhood and aims to advocate for all women of different identities and experiences both within our membership and in the world at large. This effort allows members to live out the virtues and ideals our founders established.
Statements or behavior by any member that insult, degrade, harass or stereotype any other person on the basis of gender, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, race, color, religion, national origin, age or disability, are prohibited.
Phi Sigma Sigma believes members have the capacity to take responsibility, participate in accountability, learn, educate and work diligently to repair harm caused intentionally or unintentionally.
Phi Sigma Sigma commits to infuse aspects of equity, inclusion and access into the culture and structural operations of the Fraternity. Chapters are encouraged to prioritize equity within the confines of Fraternity policy, procedures, and guidelines to accommodate member needs, and increase the ability for members to benefit from a positive member experience.
No, The Founders’ Table is not a fundraising event. The goal of these are events are for sisters to connect and spend time celebrating Founders’ Day.
Sapphire Circle Grant recipients may receive only one grant per year.
The dignity of the individual is a basic element of a civilized society.
Individual self-worth is a necessary factor in establishing healthy relationships.
Participation in activities that are demeaning to the individual do not promote a sense of self-worth and do not reflect the high standards, virtues and ideals maintained by Phi Sigma Sigma. Therefore;
Phi Sigma Sigma does not endorse or support activities that are demeaning in nature, do not respect the dignity of the individual, cause disharmony in the chapter, among fraternity/sorority organizations or the college/university community.
Further, Phi Sigma Sigma advocates education on the Fraternity and chapter level to promote positive self-esteem.
New members may apply, but applications will not enter the review process until the member is initiated into Phi Sigma Sigma.
Most brunches are casual or elevated casual. Hosts will provide more information to those registered closer to the event date.
Yes. For an application to be considered complete, the form outlining your personal statement and financial information is required and must be uploaded.
If you started your application but forgot to upload the form, please re-submit.

Phi Sigma Sigma recognizes and supports the recruitment guidelines set forth by the member groups of the National Panhellenic Conference and the fraternal practices of fairness and ethical conduct.
A standard of recruitment excellence is best achieved through common recruitment practices. Therefore; the following practices and policies must be implemented by Phi Sigma Sigma chapters:
Each chapter must strive to obtain maximum recruitment potential. If maximum recruitment potential is not attained, the chapter will implement continuous open bidding (COB) until maximum recruitment potential has been attained.
When a total figure is not set by a Panhellenic or where no Panhellenic exists, total will be set by the executive director or designee.
Membership selection is a confidential process directed by Fraternity criteria and procedure.
Candidates for collegiate membership in the Fraternity must be fully matriculated in an institution where a chapter is located and must be selected based upon their meeting the eligibility requirements prescribed in the chapter and Fraternity constitutions, and according to the rules set forth by the College Panhellenic Association, the host institution and the National Panhellenic Conference Unanimous Agreements.
Therefore, membership in each chapter must be determined by meeting membership obligations, educational achievement, commitment to our virtues and criteria related to the goals and purpose of the Fraternity.
Phi Sigma Sigma's constitution, bylaws and policies do not tolerate membership selection based on discrimination. Phi Sigma Sigma is a private membership organization for those who identify as women. Membership is open to those who identify as a woman without regard to race, color, national origin, religion, age, handicap, disability, ancestry, citizenship, marital status, sexual orientation or any other classification protected by law or ordinance.
We encourage you to visit the restaurant’s website in your city to determine if their menu has accommodations.
Phi Sigma Sigma is concerned about the welfare and safety of individual members at overnight, out-of-town and/or off-campus chapter activities.
Phi Sigma Sigma supports the National Panhellenic Conference resolution which discourages overnight activities.
Overnight, out-of-town and/or off-campus activities can increase the Fraternity's host liability – on both a chapter and Fraternity level. Therefore, Phi Sigma Sigma requires each chapter adhere to the following regarding overnight, out-of-town and/or off-campus activities:
Make every effort to hold all chapter events in the campus community area where overnight accommodations and travel are not necessary.
When an activity must be held away from the campus community the chapter must have a transportation plan suitable for the size, distance and environment in which the event is being held.
When transportation is provided by the chapter, all members of the chapter and guests (if applicable) must arrive and depart as outlined in the transportation plan and observe all Fraternity policies in transit. Members requiring accommodation must request written permission from the executive director or designee prior to the event.
Chapters are not permitted to plan, sponsor or co-sponsor activities that cross international borders or enter into international waters without written permission from the executive director or designee prior to the event.
If you are a collegian who receives financial support from parents or other sources, please include that in the financial information.
For all applicants, in the event one or more of your financial supporters are experiencing a reduction in income, furlough or are impacted by a layoff due to COVID-19, please include this information in your personal statement.
While we are continuing to accept and review applications, we have exhausted our currently available funds. We will continue to award grants if / when funds become available.
Phi Sigma Sigma holds as one of its highest ideals the advancement of womanhood.
Phi Sigma Sigma is a membership organization for women.
Granting special honorary status, membership privileges or access to men or women who are not members of Phi Sigma Sigma is not consistent with the goals of the organization.
Such statuses including sweetheart, Mr. Phi Sig, “big brother,” “little brother” or the equivalent thereof, are inconsistent with the Fraternity’s philosophies and promotion of human dignity and self-esteem.
Phi Sigma Sigma believes that ties of association inhibit the accomplishments of chapters by:
Diverting resources of time, effort and money, which are needed for chapter operations and programming
Distracting chapter members in the performance of essential duties such as membership recruitment and member development
Chapters that continue to name, grant or accept such status, title and privileges jeopardize Phi Sigma Sigma’s single-sex status.
Therefore, Phi Sigma Sigma believes that supporting, acknowledging or perpetuating these practices does not add value to the collegiate chapter experience.
The Fraternity requires that members and chapters extend the privileges of membership only to those who are pursuing or have completed initiation into the organization.
Further, no Phi Sigma Sigma member may pursue, accept or participate in associations or recognition from men’s organizations for the purpose of gaining membership privileges.
Phi Sigma Sigma recognizes that artificial intelligence (AI) tools and applications are regularly integrated into academic, professional and personal environments. These tools and applications offer significant opportunities to enhance productivity, promote innovation and increase efficiency. The Fraternity supports the ethical and responsible use of AI when it is used with care and is consistent with the values, mission and goals of the organization.
Members are expected to exercise discernment and accountability when engaging with AI. It is anticipated that AI will expand members’ capacity to brainstorm, research public information and draft impactful communication.
Tools and applications require human oversight. AI should assist, but not replace personal expertise, unique insights and decision-making abilities.
Confidential Input
Anything provided only to members of the organization is considered private and not permitted to be included or provided to any AI tool/platform. Since AI relies on user input to train applications, anything data or documentation provided could be made publicly available. Once sensitive information is input into an unknown space the Fraternity no longer has control over how it is stored or shared.
Phi Sigma Sigma and its members have a responsibility to secure confidential information, intellectual property, trade secrets, privileged documents and personally identifiable information (collectively “Confidential Materials”). Confidential Materials include, but are not limited to ritual, minutes, constitutions and bylaws, internal processes and procedures, training materials, passwords and directory information.
Members are prohibited from hosting or participating in virtual or in person meetings where verbatim note taking, or other forms of recording or transcribing discussion is taking place. The executive director or designee may grant an exception when appropriate.
Chapter Operations and Communications
AI may be used to assist with chapter administration (e.g., drafting communications, event planning) provided all inputs are publicly available and information generated is reviewed by a responsible member prior to dissemination.
Members are prohibited from using AI to create false, misleading, or defamatory content about other members, chapters, or affiliated organizations.
Personal Accountability
Each member bears responsibility for verifying the accuracy and relevance of AI-generated content prior to its use in any official or personal capacity related to Phi Sigma Sigma. Outputs should be cross-referenced or validated for errors or incomplete information.
Violations of this policy may be addressed in accordance with existing disciplinary procedures.
Phi Sigma Sigma seeks to foster a culture of transparency, respect, and ethical stewardship of emerging technologies while upholding the standards and safeguarding the privacy of Phi Sigma Sigma and it’s members.
Failure to adhere to AI user expectations could impact Phi Sigma Sigma’s operations, reputation or compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
Members who are unsure if information is safe to enter or who become aware of a security breach/incident are encouraged to seek guidance from the executive director or designee.
In the event you receive funds from another source and are no longer in need of support from the Sapphire Circle Emergency Assistance program, please notify sapphirecircle@phisigmasigma.org to enable us to assist another sister.
Phi Sigma Sigma is concerned for the well-being of its members and their guests, and that concern is best realized by providing safe activities in safe environments.
Phi Sigma Sigma recognizes that awareness, education and planning are vital aspects to providing safe activities in safe environments.
Therefore, each Phi Sigma Sigma chapter and its members must:
Abide by all local, state/province and national laws.
Abide by all campus regulations and policies.
Abide by Phi Sigma Sigma's constitution, bylaws and policies.
Cooperate with Fraternity personnel.
Further, each Phi Sigma Sigma chapter must:
Require members to review and acknowledge Fraternity policies on an annual basis and in conjunction with installation of the chapter's executive board members.
Include risk management education, through participation in campus-sponsored programs or involvement with student services and chapter programming on relevant topics.
We have seen a significant amount of need demonstrated by a number of sisters seeking assistance as a result of financial impacts from COVID-19. Therefore, we are prioritizing help to address critical needs of safe and secure housing, food and utilities.
If you are seeking tuition assistance, please apply for the Foundation's education scholarships and grants. Applications are due June 1, 2020.

Kristina Witten was a loved alumnae member of the Epsilon Chi Chapter at Indiana University Southeast who passed away on July 5, 2010 as a result of Cystic Fibrosis. She loved life and she showed it by getting out in the world and experiencing it. Kristina's death brought great sadness to those who knew her. For the sisters of the Kentuckiana Alumnae Chapter, and all who supported their efforts, establishing Kristina's scholarship helped turn that sadness into joy as Kristina's story teaches others not only about Cystic Fibrosis but about living every moment as if it were your last. Collegians and graduate students pursuing a career in the medical field are eligible for this scholarship which is awarded on academic achievement and community service.

This scholarship will be awarded based on service to Phi Sigma Sigma, campus and community.

We do not consider part time students for educational grants or scholarships.
A sister must be enrolled fall 2025 through spring 2026 to receive a scholarship/educational grant, so unfortunately sisters graduating in fall 2025 will not be eligible for a scholarship. Scholarship checks are mailed directly to the college or university where a sister is enrolled by December 2025 to be applied to the spring 2026 semester .
A sister can receive a scholarship if she will be transferring to a different college/university in spring 2025. However, if a sister transfers, she must notify the Foundation of her new school and the appropriate financial aid contacts so we can mail her scholarship or grant check. Even though a sister who has transferred may have been granted alumna status by the Fraternity, as long as she is still finishing her undergraduate degree she will only be eligible for scholarships or grants that are designated for collegians.
Tax records for 2024 are due to the IRS after our deadline for scholarship applications. Therefore, we need the 2023 records that were filed in 2024.
No, members must be initiated to qualify.
Our requirements are that collegians are full time while pursuing their degrees. Universities can define "full time" in different ways so if your particular university considers your program to be full time you are eligible to apply for a scholarship or educational grant.
Currently all of our scholarships requirements are such that alumnae must be full time while pursuing their degrees. Universities can define "full time" in different ways so if your particular university considers your program to be full time you are eligible to apply for a scholarship.
Sisters who are sophomores this year can apply for scholarships that are designated for juniors and seniors if they will be a junior or senior in the fall and will be a full-time student in spring 2026.
Sisters who have the expense of their education covered by company funded tuition reimbursement are not eligible.
No, all documentation must be submitted by the deadline.
Sisters may have the recommendation form completed by anyone she would like. The form does not have to be completed by a Phi Sigma Sigma member. Be sure your recommendation is from someone that can speak to the questions on the form. In the past, sisters have sent recommendation forms completed by their chapter’s advisor, professors, supervisors, fellow alumnae or alumnae chapter members, etc.
At this time, a chapter donation is not required for a sister to be eligible for a scholarship.
We must have your unofficial or official transcript to consider your application complete. These need to arrive by the deadline. You will need to request an unofficial or official transcript be mailed from your college or university.
Transcripts should be mailed to: Phi Sigma Sigma Foundation Attn: Scholarship Committee 1213 Liberty Road
Suite J #335
Eldersburg, MD 21784
You may submit an electronic version if your university provides a secure transmission of official transcripts. It must be sent electronically from the university to fndscholarship@phisigmasigma.org. We will not accept screen shots and/or electronic transcripts sent from an applicant.
You must make the recommendation request prior to the deadline. However, the actual completion of the recommendation form can be submitted after the deadline.
If you applied last year and mailed your undergraduate transcript, you do not need to mail another one.
Please contact the Foundation at fndscholarship@phisigmasigma.org.

You will make your payments on the Phi Sigma Sigma website. Once you've registered on the website you will find your invoice(s) under the My Profile menu tab. Click "Pay Open Invoices" in the top left corner window.
New member and initiation fees should be paid on the Phi Sigma Sigma website. Please do not call Headquarters with payment, as we cannot process payment over the phone.
Welcome boxes will automatically ship once you pay your first installment. Boxes will be shipped to the address entered during new member registration.
Badges, certificates and membership cards will be ordered once you've paid both installments of your new member dues. Our badges are custom-made and take 6-8 weeks to produce. Your badge, certificate and membership card will be shipped directly to the address on file.
Fraternity and local dues and fees are rolled into one all-inclusive amount and billed through Billhighway based on your selected payment schedule. Phi Sigma Sigma Fraternity dues and fees are a standard rate for all members and are collected each fall semester. Local dues depended on your chapter’s projected programming and your member status.
Due to COVID-19, state, county and university restrictions will determine what programming can be held safely. Phi Sigma Sigma Fraternity dues and fees will continue to be the same for all members and are collected each fall semester. For the time being, Fraternity dues and fees and will be billed through the Phi Sigma Sigma website on your selected payment schedule.
If you wish to participate in approved programming, you will pre-pay the authorized amount for the event on your Billhighway account to cover the cost of the event. If your chapter has campus-specific operational expenses (panhellenic dues, composites, recruitment, etc.) you may still pay those fees through Billhighway.
Think of this as a shift from all-inclusive to pay-as-you-go fee distribution.
It is our hope that this Fraternity dues and fees model goes a long way to help members who were financially impacted by COVID-19 to take control of their financial stability while maintaining their membership.
The Loyal Sister program is a special program for all Phi Sigma Sigma alumnae to continue their lifelong support of our Fraternity and its operations through an annual dues payment. This includes daily operations of Phi Sigma Sigma Headquarters, our staff and programs including:
Collegiate leadership academy and institutes for chapter officers
Advisor training and education
Phi Program (new member education program)
Recruitment support
Detour program (our online sisterhood experience during COVID-19 interruptions)
Diversity, equity and inclusion programming
As a dedicated Phi Sigma Sigma sister, you can help us shape the Phi Sigma Sigma experience for future generations of sisters. As we are perpetually in search of providing the premier membership experience for today's sisters, we need your assistance in mobilizing progress by investing in our future.
Alumnae are asked to pay their annual Loyal Sister dues to remain in good standing, which is required to be an active volunteer or vote at Convention. As a Loyal Sister, you will also receive first access to special alumnae programming.
This is also a direct way to support the perpetuity of Phi Sigma Sigma and help our sisterhood continue to grow and evolve for the next generation of sisters. By gifting a year of Loyal Sister dues to a graduating senior, you are helping start this habit for the future and showing her that Phi Sigma Sigma continues long beyond graduation.
Loyal Sister payments are not a tax-deductible donation. Unlike a donation to the Phi Sigma Sigma Foundation, Loyal Sister dues and the Support-a-Senior program contribute funds to the Fraternity to help underwrite programming, chapter support and daily operations of Phi Sigma Sigma Headquarters.
You can make a contribution through our CrowdChange campaign or on Venmo.
CrowdChange
To make a payment on CrowdChange, click here and select your chapter as your team. In order to maximize the generosity of our sisters, CrowdChange automatically includes the processing fees at checkout. You can choose to opt out of these fees on CrowdChange.
Venmo
We are excited to pilot Venmo for business as a part of this campaign. You can make a contribution to @PhiSigmaSigma directly on Venmo. Don't see business accounts? Make sure you have the latest update of the app. When making a Venmo payment, please include your full name (including maiden name if applicable), chapter and support-a-senior.
Yes, our goal is to show our graduating seniors the support of Phi Sigma Sigma as a whole. By gifting a year of Loyal Sister dues to senior, you are demonstrating the bond of sisterhood that extends beyond our chapters to our larger pyramid.
We have created the CrowdChange pages by chapter to help track chapter affiliation of all of our generous sisters.
Yes! A contribution of $25 will sponsor one senior, but you are welcome to make any contribution. Partial sponsorships will be combined to help us meet our goal of sponsoring all of our spring 2021 graduates.
I agree to pay all financial obligations due to Phi Sigma Sigma which are incurred while attending this university or any other university where I may affiliate with a chapter of Phi Sigma Sigma.
I also understand that, if Phi Sigma Sigma maintains a residence at the university I am attending, unless I am living at home or in a university residence employed as a resident assistant, I am required to live in the Phi Sigma Sigma residence, provided there is a space not filled by a member of Phi Sigma Sigma, and that doing so is not in conflict with university housing regulations.
Email your chapter coach with the following information:
- Your chapter letters
- Date of your chapter 5K
- Location of chapter 5K
Reach out to your chapter coach or email 5k@phisigmasigma.org.
Yes it is possible, but there are a lot of factors to be considered. Work with your chapter coach to figure out details.
NOTE - If you're planning on doing a 5K with another chapter, each chapter is required to set up their own CrowdChange fundraiser.
You will create a custom race registration page using CrowdChange's new 5K blueprint. Check out the registration section for step-by-step instructions.
Anyone who cannot attend in-person can still support the cause by donating through your chapter's CrowdChange page!
Proceeds will be directed to the chapter's Community Impact Fund through the Phi Sigma Sigma Foundation.
Chapters can submit grant requests to use their Community Impact Fund to benefit their local school partner through various initiatives including backpack builds, direct financial grants to support programs or projects, or purchasing other equipment/supplies for the school. For more information and directions on submitting a grant request, please contact your chapter coach.
Yes! If you are looking for a way to generate more donations or planning on hosting an on-site fundraiser (such as food sales, etc.) to increase the profit, you must use the CrowdChange platform to collect funds.
The cost of registration is deductible beyond the value of goods received.
Your 5K will be funded in the same process as all Phi Sigma Sigma philanthropy events. Your expenses will be subtracted from the money you raised. The profit (minus expenses) will be then transferred to your Community Impact Fund with the Phi Sigma Sigma Foundation.
This is legit! We have partnered with PCI (also known as Publishing Concepts) to produce an Oral History Publication for Phi Sigma Sigma, Inc. PCI is a family-owned business based in Dallas, TX that has published directories for educational institutions, fraternities, sororities, and military organizations across the nation for over 100 years. This project allows us to hear about your personal experiences from your time at Phi Sigma Sigma and how the organization helped to shape your life since then. And, while we have you on the phone, we want to make sure your contact information is up to date.
Yes, in a few different ways:
Updated Information – allows us to effectively communicate with and engage alumnae
Legacy – sharing and collecting stories preserves the history of our organization
Revenue – generates non-dues revenue for alumnae programs
Phi Sig Pride – wearing apparel shows support and love for our organization
PCI is committed to protecting your information. The names, addresses and information provided to PCI for the publication of the Oral History Project will be held confidential by PCI, except to the extent that they are utilized in, or in the preparation of, the Oral History Project and except as required by court order or law.
If you received a postcard or an email with a telephone number, you may call the number to speak with a dedicated representative for the Oral History Project. The representative will verify the information we have on file for you, make any updates where needed, and then ask you to share your story about your time in Phi Sigma Sigma. Your story will be recorded, and the sound clip provided to Phi Sigma Sigma at the conclusion of the project.
If you have received an email with an embedded link, you may go to the online site to review your information and submit a story.
If you are living internationally or are unable to call the update line, please email customerservice@publishingconcepts.com. PCI will send you a personalized link for you to share your written story and photo.
To help you prepare for your call and to share your Phi Sigma Sigma story, here are some examples of they type of questions that may be asked during your call:
When you think about your time at Phi Sig, what’s that one story you like to tell?
When you decided to go Greek, what was it that made you choose Phi Sig?
Tell me what life was like on campus (e.g. did you live in a dorm/the Greek house, where did you hang out?)
What type of charity or community events did you and your sisters take part in?
Most people know that Greek Life can be fun, but tell me about the friendships you created.
Tell me about the sisters that you've kept in touch with, and how those friendships have evolved.
Looking back at your time with Phi Sig, how do you think you grew or changed?
Overall, how do you think Phi Sig prepared you for the "real world"?
After updating your contact information and answering questions about your Phi Sigma Sigma experience for the Oral History Project, you will be asked if you want to pay your annual alumnae dues (if you haven't already paid) and purchase merchandise and/or the Oral History Project book. You are under no obligation to pay your alumnae dues or make a purchase.
No. While various book and merchandise packages will be offered, you are not required to make a purchase to participate in the project.
If you would like to participate and are Deaf/Hard of Hearing, please email customerservice@publishingconcepts.com. PCI will send you a personalized link for you to share your written story and photo.
The only information that is included in the publication is your name and your chapter, along with your story and photo. No contact information is printed. When you call to update your contact information, it will only be used to update your Phi Sigma Sigma record only. You may revoke consent for your story and/or photo to appear any time before 12/13/2024 by contacting PCI’s customer service help desk at 1-800-982-1590 or customerservice@publishingconcepts.com.

Thank you for helping us shape the Phi Sigma Sigma experience for future generations of sisters!
Yes! New members in good standing are eligible to apply for executive board.
No. Your relevant leadership skills are more important than your major.
You do not have to have any sort of finance background to serve as bursar. You do not need to be an education major to serve as SDC.
No. Serving as an assistant is great leadership experience, but it does not guarantee that you will be placed in that role in the future. The nominating committee will consider multiple factors in placing the most appropriate person in that role. In addition, you are not required to indicate preference for that role - you can indicate preference for any role that you have interest in.
Not true. While having a close relationship with a sister who has served in a specific role gives you an up-close look at what it might take to serve in that role, family line plays no role in the slating process. You are an individual person, and you can indicate interest in any position you are passionate about.
There is no requirement to have served on executive board previously to fulfill any role on the executive board (even archon). There is no set "path" to service, and the nominating committee will look at multiple factors when putting together the slate.
Each role within the chapter's executive board is very intentional and vital to chapter operation. The focus of each role may be different, but the function is no less important.
If the archon plans to apply for 2025 executive board, she cannot serve as chairman of the nominating committee. In this case, the vice archon will serve as the chairman. If both are running for 2025 executive board, work with your chapter coach to determine who should oversee the committee.
Yes, they should still give their recommendation for previous executive board / executive council chairman. The nominating committee makes the final decision on which candidates to slate in which positions.
Active members - Eligible if they are in good standing (up-to-date on dues and have the required cumulative GPA)
New members - Eligible if they are in good standing (up-to-date on dues and have the required cumulative GPA)
Suspended members - NOT eligible
Limited members - eligible if they will be active in spring 2025
Alumnae - NOT eligible (this includes members who took alumna status before graduating)
Incoming vice archons must attend their required trainings before they can proceed with appointing executive council.
If the slate does not pass, each position will be voted on individually. The chapter will be asked to either vote "yes" or "no" to confirm the slated candidate. This process will be done for each position.
Following all of the confirmation votes, the archon will call for alternate candidates for ONLY the failed confirmations. Only members who have submitted an executive board application can be considered as a candidate. A simple majority vote is needed to elect the position.
