Gina Han, Sally Hsieh, Jean Kim, Jenny Kim, Sandra Lam, Yan-Chieh Liu, Winnie Liu, Michelle Macaraig, Sung-Yon Noh, and Loan Trang realized this. What tied together these noble ambitions was a strong friendship. SYF was born. They looked into existing Greek organizations, but found none that could meet their needs. After much deliberation and contact with their campus administration, they began the steps towards establishing a a sorority that would address their needs. What first began in the Fall Semester of 1993 blossomed in the Spring of 1994. On March 23, 1994, they founded Sigma Psi Zeta. Loyalty, Allegiance, and Dedication were the attributes these women incorporated into the organization, and to this day, they continue to serve as the foundation and spirit by which all of the members of Sigma Psi Zeta Sorority, Incorporated act upon. These women collectively felt it especially important to understand and unite, because the Asian and Pacific Islander cultures face significant difficulties and challenges that are both based geographically and linguistically. The historical marginalization of women, particularly women of color, has had a significant impact on the process by which multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, and multi-racial women as certain educational, economic, social, and political capital in American society. The structure of a Greek Letter organization addressed the need for the organization to nurture bonds between women that surpass those of traditional clubs and associations. At the same time, these ten women of various cultural and ethnic backgrounds hoped that the organization would nurture the bonds of sisterhood, and become a vehicle for action in addressing the needs of Asian-American women on their campus. They then took an oath of loyalty, allegiance, and dedication to each other and their cause. A sorority was established, adopting Sigma Psi Zeta as their name. What brought together our founders still attracts so many women today.
