FAQ's

Q: Do I have to be Asian to join?

No. Sigma Psi Zeta embraces diversity, welcoming members of all races & cultural backgrounds. We believe that our mission to promote awareness of the Asian/Asian-American culture is strengthened by the diversity of our members regardless of race, religion, or creed.

Q: What is RUSH?

RUSH is a two week long process held the beginning of every school semester. The purpose of RUSH is for you and the sisters to interact and get to know each other. RUSH is a time when you can learn more about Sigma Psi Zeta and other sororities to evaluate if Sigma, or even Greek life, is for you.

Q: What is expected of me as a rushee?

Rush events are FREE to rushees. All that we ask of you as a rushee is that you come ready to have fun!

Q: How long is your pledging process?

The length of our pledging program varies with each pledge class, with a minimum of 6-8 weeks.

Q: Does your organization haze?

No. Sigma Psi Zeta does not endorse degrading or physically abusing our pledges in any way. We give our pledges the same respect that we, as strong women, demand. Our pledging program is designed to educate, not degrade!

Q: Do you have a brother fraternity?

No. As a sorority, we function entirely independently. As Sigma women, our independence is something we take extreme pride in.

Q: Do I sign up for Inter-Greek Council (IGC) Rush to RUSH Sigma Psi Zeta?

No. We are a part of the Allied Greek Council on the SUNY Geneseo campus, so you do not need to sign up for IGC Rush. However, we do encourage you to rush other Greek organizations in order to better evaluate which organization you feel is right for you.
