Involvements & Achievements

Proud to be a Nu Sig!

The sisters of Nu Sigma Pi sorority not only encourage one another with involving themselves within the community, but also in supporting each sister in pursuing their dreams and doing the best they can in whatever they involve themselves in. The sorority’s ideals, beliefs and active participation in different fields has earned us strong recognition not only within our organization but within our communities as well. Below are just some of the achievements that our sisters have accomplished.
