Sigma
Lambda Gamma National Sorority promotes standards of excellence
in morality, ethics, and education. It works to better serve
the needs and wants of all people by disseminating information
about the diverse culture we share. The sorority maintains
respect for the views of others through this valuing, thereby
enhancing our understanding of one another and bettering
our community, our country, and the world.
Morals
and Ethics
As members of Sigma Lambda Gamma we display good sound moral
judgment at all times. We are considerate and kind to all
poeple, giving people the same respect we would like to
be given. As a member of Sigma Lambda Gamma we always represent
sisterhood, remembering individual actions reflect on the
sorority as a whole.
Community
Service
Our community services are intended to help others in our
communities. Our services should be viewed as a way of contributing
to the betterment of our community. Participating in community
services helps us respond to people's needs through listening
and uderstanding.
Academics
The success and recognition of Latina women depends on our
education. We, the future leaders of this country, have
the opportunity to pursue a higher education. Sometimes
it may be necessary to seek help from others like tutors,
professors, and our sorority sisters in order to obtain
our degrees. A solid education is one key to our future.
It opens doors for us, lets our voices be heard, and enables
our dreams to become realities.
Cultural
Awareness
Sigma Lambda Gamma believes that Culture is Pride, Pride
is Success. Exploring the richness in tradition of Latina
culture that encompasses the heritage of Native Americans
(North, Central and South), Europeans, Africans and Asians
and their multiple and interesting mixtures, we celebrate
the diversity of backgrounds of all the members of our sorority.
Through these efforts of cultural awareness, we expect that
each woman will explore their roots and traditions, and
share those with other members so that cultural understanding
and respect are promoted. We hope to create new traditions
so that future generations of college women find their college
years filled with pride and joy in the celebration of their
identity and heritage.
Social
Interaction
As members of Sigma Lambda Gamma, we have the oportunity
to be open to all types of positive social interactions.
Engaging in social interactions helps us not only to understand
others but also ourselves. Although we all have our own
individual differences, we must be able to be accepting
and open-minded of the actions of others.
