Alpha Pi Sigma - Cal Poly Pomona

About me:

OUR HISTORY:

Alpha Pi Sigma was established on March 10, 1990 at San Diego State University. Latina women from a variety of backgrounds came together to form an organization that would unite and support Latina women on campus. The Ladies of Alpha Pi Sigma believe in taking their education seriously and have maintained a 100% graduation rate. They believe that campus involvement, academics, leadership, and community service are methods to achieve success at the University level. Other objectives of the Sorority include promoting members academically, personally, and professionally.

Alpha Pi Sigma is a Latina Based sorority. Alpha Pi Sigma does not discriminate against any ethnic group and welcomes all Ladies that are interested in the Alpha Pi Sigma experience. Latina Based simply refers to an emphasis in uniting Ladies that are interested in celebrating and promoting primarily the Latino culture.
