Sigma Kappa Triangle PDF Download

Excerpt from Sigma Kappa Triangle, Vol. 2: September, 1907 First, Sigma Kappa stands for ideal friendship. This has ever been her leading aim. In all ages of the world, since man became a social being, there has been a banding together of those of similar tastes and pursuits. Community of interest is often the strongest of all human bonds. Should we trace the history of this custom, we should doubtless find that it arose in ancient war-like times from a necessity for mutual protection. But though with the bettering of human conditions the necessity has passed. Yet the fact remains, and men and women continue to pledge their fealty to one another for such services as friendship ever knows how to render. Thus Sigma throws round us all her golden bonds. She makes to each the name and honor of all the others dear. She imposes upon us mutual helpfulness and mutual trust and confidence. She creates the possibility of strong and lasting ties. She emphasizes one of the leading aims of col lege life and seeks to perpetuate one of its choicest benefits. The apotheosis of friendship - this is her supreme ideal and this the central jewel in her crown, for, than friendship, the wide and wandering sea of life casts up to us no pearl more precious.
