Rush Psi Sigma Psi Sorority! ΨΣΨ

We are Psi Sigma Psi Sorority and we are a close-knit group. We don't pick out members by their choice of clothing, what they do on their free time, or their background.

We are all close with our alumni and our brother house, Mu Theta. Please take the time to get to know us! You will realize that a sorority can be both laid back and fun!
