Many women are somewhat skeptical of Greek Life when they first come to Western Michigan University. One may ask themselves, why after 18 years do I suddenly need a sisterhood?

Others will be curious and ready to explore what Greek life can do for them. And no matter what you find your thoughts to be, we encourage you to take that first step and explore. Life at WMU can be stressful between all your classes and your extracurricular activities. For most of rushies, it’s their first time living away from home and finding themself in a place where they don't know anyone. Greek life provides you with an opportunity to find your college family, your home away from home. Sigma Kappa is a group of 75 women at WMU working to enhance themselves intellectually and socially, while making a positive change on their surroundings. We come from different states, countries, nationalities and religions. We participate in different activities, choose different majors, and prepare for different careers. Each one of us is unique, but one thing we all have in common is that we are all enthusiastic about our passions, both within SK and elsewhere. Not only will you find us involved in numerous student groups throughout campus, you'll also find us meeting with advisers to start new ones.

At Sigma Kappa, we pride ourselves on our sisterhood.  ∑K isn't just two letters you wear on your chest; it's about being a part of a group of girls who will always be there for you. To us, sisterhood means never having to ask for a hug, Facebook chatting someone when they are 10 feet away just to say hi, or laughing so hard that you can barely breathe. It means painting your entire face black and cheering on one of your sisters at her championship volleyball game, or spelling out a sister's name on your stomach because she's in the running for Greek Goddess. In the end, Sigma Kappa is a place where you can be confident about yourself because your sisters are always by your side.
