Little Sisters of Sigma Chi The Little Sisters of Sigma Chi worked with their brothers in making this past year the total success that it was for Sig- ma Chi. The spirit they had was evident in everything they did. Hosting a highly successful Halloween Party gave every- body who attended the opportunity to use their imagination and dress up in hopes of winning first place in the cos- tum e contest. They also helped tremendously with Derby Day, Parent ' s Day, and Fall Rush. They had three fund raisers which in- cluded a car wash, a chain lock-in, and a sack-supper auction. With the intention of ending the year with a bang, the Little Sigmas sponsored a New Year ' s Eve Bash. Brothers, alum- ni, pledges, little sisters, and their dates danced the year away and, indeed, end- ed it with a bang.
