19 Signs You're A Tri Sigma
C. Baab

Sigma Sigma Sigma, also known as Tri Sigma, is a sorority home for many girls. Over 100 years ago eight women founded Tri Sigma. Each of its members are beautiful and unique and bring so much to their chapters. Here are 19 clear signs you are a Tri Sigma.

1. You know by now what year Columbus sailed the ocean.

"In 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean, in 1898 we were set in motion."

2. You get excited when you get to tell someone Carrie Underwood is your sister.

Yes that's my sis!

3. You have been referred to as "the sorority with the three E's."

They're Sigmas, not E's.

4. You appreciate the nautical theme much more now.

5. You're faithful for life.

6. You get aggravated when someone says "Tri Sig."

It's Tri SigMA.

7. The date 4/20 has a different meaning to you.

We were founded on 4/20/1898. Of course this date has a different meaning to us.

8. We know what Sigma Sigma Sigma really means.

9. Standards is not something we are sent to.

10. Harmony is your favorite Care Bear.

Tri Sigma alumnae Linda Denham created this important part of our childhood: Care Bears. Harmony was created just for Tri Sigma, which makes her the most special of all.

11. Our skull and crossbones motto makes us feel cool.

We rock the skull and cross bones, but still look good in pearls.

12. Everyone struggles to find white dresses and shoes.

13. Purple has become one of your favorite colors.

Purple everything!

14. You think Robbie Page was one cool kid.

15. You're pumped that we now have a national partnership with March of Dimes.

16. "Faith, hope and love are the good things he gave us," but God didn't stop there.

Wisdom and power finish out our five values.

17. You love that you can make a sailboat with your hands.

18. You can make a Sigma as well.

19. You are surrounded by beautiful women.

We are Tri Sigma empowered.

My Tri Sigma sisters love me for who I am and encourage me to be my best me. I don't know what I would be without them.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
