Sigma Psi Alpha

Created on September 11th 2004, Sigma Psi Alpha Sorority has come to be known as one of the University of Ottawa's most proud and notable social groups. Priding itself on unity, loyalty, friendship and sisterhood, Sigma Psi Alpha aims to enrich the scholastic experiences of each of its members by organizing philanthropic and fundraising events accompanied with social outlets which facilitate sisterly bonding and social networking. Although Sigma Psi Alpha is a local, Ottawa-based group, it maintains some of the traditions and standards of fraternal orders worldwide.

The Sweet Eleven

The Sweet Eleven Founding Mothers wished to create a sorority based on their senses of morals, values and true sisterhood, values that hold strong within this group today. They saw the need for a unit wherein one could feel comfortable being nothing more than herself.

Founding Mothers:
Ashley Dempers, Katie Fyfe, Rasha Jerandi, Elena Manica, Ashley Stoll, Sarah Kokerus, Valerie Husky, Alicia Stoll, Christina Johnson, Kate Sinnott, & Jessica Westwood-Smith

Philanthropy

The sisters of Sigma Psi Alpha donate their time to various local charities throughout Ottawa's downtown core, however Sigma Psi Alpha has chosen to support Lupus Canada in the fight against this ravaging disease which has stricken a very personal note in some of the sisters' lives.

Membership

Membership is restricted to those who participate in the month-long rush period, followed by a six-week pledging period, commencing in an initation weekend. This is generally the standard followed for all Greek organizations when selecting prospective members.
