STP (Her)Story
Our ​Founding Mothers created Sigma Theta Psi Sorority on November 13, 1991 at San Jose State University. The eighteen visionary women came together to fill a void of multicultural awareness on their campus. They sought to create a sisterhood that would embrace and celebrate cultural diversity, and that was rooted in the shared principles of honesty, loyalty, respect, open-mindedness, leadership, and academic excellence.
Honesty. Loyalty. Respect. Open-Mindedness. Leadership. Academic Excellence.
