It\u2019s a huge honor for us and serves as a culmination for our entire school year,\u201d Kat Brewer, a senior from Clarksville, Tennessee and president of Sigma Kappa at UTC, said.<\/p>\n<p>To receive the award, the chapter had to exceed at the national organization\u2019s set of standards. High performance in areas such as membership, financial management, philanthropy, scholarship, recruitment, leadership, alumnae relations, and campus involvement earned the chapter three stars.<\/p>\n<p>According to Brewer, the meaning of the Sigma Kappa has changed for her since she joined the organization during her freshmen year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOver time, I\u2019ve grown to appreciate the meaning of Sigma Kappa. Our chapter has 180 beautiful, talented, smart women who all have their own stories. Sometimes those stories are ones of heartbreak, sadness, or loss, but together, we can overcome them. That\u2019s what sisterhood really means,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>For Brewer, the award symbolizes not just a year\u2019s worth of hard work, but also her admiration for her sisters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs president of the chapter, I tell my sisters all the time how proud I am, but it\u2019s hard for them to see it. This award gives them a tangible thing. It says, \u2018We have a lot to be proud of,\u2019\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Jennie Sumrell, UTC alumna and advisory board chairperson for Sigma Kappa, is also proud of the hard work from the chapter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI majored in education, so my passion is working with students. It\u2019s been really powerful and meaningful to work with college-aged women and see them build strong character and leadership skills. It\u2019s been rewarding to see the total transformations these young women go through,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sigma Kappa at UTC was recently recognized as one of two chapters in the nation to achieve the highest ranking on the sorority\u2019s Standards of Excellence.
