Our History & Mission

Our History

The Alpha Omega Chapter of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. was organized by Soror Johnnie Y. Rice and chartered on February 24, 1945, at Tillotson College. Several current members of Alpha Kappa Sigma Chapter were inducted into the sorority through Alpha Omega Chapter, including Sorors Mary Ashford (Life Member), Nehoma Brown (Cultured Pearl Member), Jennifer Hicks, Leah Nolan, Karolyn Thompson (Ruby Member), and Anna Edem Etuk. The chapter maintains a Sigma Gamma Rho plot prominently placed on the patio of the student union building on Huston-Tillotson University’s campus.

Current members are active on campus by assisting with the Dr. Martin L. King Breakfast, distributing water to new students at orientation, and assisting with student recruitment activities.
