Linda, recording secretary KIRK, Carolyn, historian TELLEFSEN, Sharon E., alumnae secretary SOBRINO, Josephine, adviser A potpourri of activities highlighted the year for Gamma Sigma Sigma, national women's service fraternity. Gamma Sigs work to serve others and are urged to develop strong bonds of friendship among themselves and the college community. Campus projects last year focused on alphabetizing student life cards, reading texts for blind students, manning election polls, updating bulletin boards around the University Center and aiding handicapped students in registration. In addition, Gamma Sigs contributed money to the Houston Humane Society, adopted a financially deprived family and worked with mentally retarded children. The Alpha Chapter of Gamma Sigma Sigma has won several awards in the past year. Nationally, the group was voted the Outstanding Chapter in the South Central Region. Students lay odds on their favorite entrant in the first annual Turtle Bace in the University Center Arbor. The race was sponsored by Gamma Sigma Sigma. 386 |
