On November 26, 1913, Phi Sigma Sigma was founded at Hunter College in New York by a group of women who wanted to start a sorority that would promote open membership to all women of character regardless of background; a sorority committed to sisterhood, excellence in scholarship, and selfless giving. The Founders' first objective was to establish the twin ideals "the brotherhood of man and the alleviation of the worlds pain". Ever since then, women around the world strive to live by those twin ideals and strive to always "aim high".
