Progress is not always easy and nothing stays the same. Just look at what’s going on with “New Harem” (p.2). With so much happening around us, we have to stay healthy (p.13) and keep the faith. I am inspired by the young ladies in the Virgin Islands (the “VI”) who told me what they love about themselves (p. 11). I am amazed by Byron Lars’ super-fierce Barbie interpretation (p.4) and the types of information available at Puzzles For Us (p.5). Loving the information on the hair and culture of our ancestors in the 1880’s (p.7), I am cautious about the savvy business mind of Nicki Minaj and her evolving self-awareness regarding the weight of responsibility that comes with her new, highly sought-after pop culture status (p.8). Our Sister Connections (p.4) and Global Partners (p.10) always keep me looking forward as I realize that, one group at a time, we are making a BIG impact. Using technology for self-expression, such as Internet blogs and Sisterhood Agenda’s new Positive Media project (p.7), we hope to inspire a new way of thinking about self-representation. We are happy that you have joined Sisterhood Agenda in this journey– together, we can do anything! To get even more, we hope to see you in the VI, America’s Caribbean, during our Global Training Academy Summer Series for teenage girls and mothers (p.12).

  • ABSTRACT JOHNSON, SHANNON LEE. Sisters
    ABSTRACT JOHNSON, SHANNON LEE. Sisters of Diversity: A Case Study on the Roles of a Multicultural Sorority. (Under the direction of Dr. Susan J. Bracken.) Little to no literature has been published on multicultural Greek letter organizations, yet they appear to be among the fastest growing phenomena in Greek life. Concerned about the future of human relations and desiring to explore opportunities for respectful interactions among diverse individuals, the author chose to narrow her research to the college campus environment and, more specifically, to a group of women. The purpose of the qualitative case study was to understand how members of one self-identified multicultural sorority at a Southeastern research university define and address intercultural issues on their college campus. The author selected the multicultural feminist perspective and the intercultural theory of student development as the theoretical framework. Primarily based upon interviews with 10 current and alumnae members of the sorority, the findings explore one overarching research question: what describes the nature of the roles of a multicultural sorority on a college campus? Three areas were explored – identity, structure, and activities – to support this overarching research question. Five key statements of findings emerged from the data. Within the thematic area of Identity, the first finding is the lack of sororal intentions by the women who joined Theta Nu Xi and the second finding is their deep feeling of acceptance. The third key finding, situated within the thematic area of Structure, is the idea that this sorority is intentionally multicultural but inherently feminist. Within the thematic area of Activities, the fourth finding describes how the purpose and activities of Theta Nu Xi differ from traditional Greek letter organizations (GLOs), and the fifth finding explores the concept of universal learning rather than unilateral learning.
