Anchored in Tradition

Alpha Sigma Tau was founded on November 4, 1899 at Michigan State Normal College (now Eastern Michigan University) in Ypsilanti, Michigan by eight women. The sorority's values are graciousness, respect, intellect, connections, and excellence. The colors are emerald green and gold. The jewel is the pearl and the symbol is the anchor. The flower is the yellow rose.

From its beginnings in 1899 to today, the Purpose of the Sorority has been to promote the ethical, cultural, and social development of its members and members have maintained high standards of scholarship, friendship, and social grace.
