[FROM THE ARCHIVES]
"We tread our paths so easily, Now worn quite smooth by other feet, We scarce will deign to look
upon The rougher paths, which may ours meet. So we forget that our smooth way Was once as
rough and hard as these; That many traveled painfully, That we might travel on in lease."
- Grace Foster, Alpha, Colby College
From the Autumn 1921 Sigma Kappa Triangle, celebrating 50 years of women's admission to Colby
College

HOW WE MADE IT THROUGH
2017 was a tumultuous year, and between natural disasters,
travel bans, protests, and mass shootings, Sigma Kappa
members were challenged like never before. Sigma Kappa
seeks to help our members by showing our support and
providing monetary assistance through the Sigma Kappa
Foundation. Living with heart means committing ourselves
to each other and to the causes we believe in,
and embodying our values of personal growth, friendship,
service and loyalty in everything we do. To help support
your sisters in times of need, please give to the Sigma
Kappa Foundation.
