History of Delta Sigma Chapter
In 1927, Soror Helen Brooks of Alpha Chapter, Indianapolis, Indiana National Organizer responded to the invitation extended by Sorors Roberta Anderson Maloney and Ida Laws of Eta Chapter (undergraduate chapter at Northwestern University in Chicago) and organized Delta Sigma Alumnae Chapter in Chicago. Inspired by the goals of the national chapter these charter members began their activity of community service and expansion through a close working relationship with Eta Chapter.
The story of the growth and development of Delta Sigma Chapter cannot be told with the inclusion of its grass roots, which were deeply imbedded in Eta Chapter. Eta Chapter was the first Sigma Gamma Rho Chapter established in Chicago Illinois in 1925. Most of its members were inspired to work for a graduate chapter in the city. After graduation, most of the members later transferred into Delta Sigma.
