We, the members of this organization, have bonded together in order to share our wisdom through unity; to encourage and inspire creativity and personal growth in our members; to foster fraternal friendship and promote a fraternal community in the organization; to challenge all biases; to preserve the purity of equality, to represent the embodiment of a positive dominant lesbian (i.e. stud, tomboi, aggressive).

SigXi members believe that sharing wisdom allows it to never be lost. It brings us closer to our goals and bonds us tighter with those we share with. For our members this doesn’t stop with education on the fraternity itself; learning the secrets of SigXi is only a small part. Sharing wisdom in all areas of life makes all of us better. Learning and educating strengthens the unity and allows our members to feel that they are a positive influence on those around them.

SigXi wishes to encourage not only our members, but also individuals within our communities to be the best they can be; to inspire members to be creative and innovative in their thinking. Our members do not become somebody by joining the organization but they are enhanced by it. They are supported in their endeavors to become ever greater women.

Fraternal friendship and fraternal community are at the pulse point of SigXi’s success. By creating an environment where all members are able to and encouraged to participate, contribute and identify the areas where they have an interest in developing their skills, SigXi makes the community of the fraternity a welcoming one. Growth starts within. It flourishes in an environment where members are confident in their equality.

Negative or limiting stereotypes can be harmful to the individuals that are being stereotyped as well as the ones with the preconceived notions. Our members understand the importance of adjusting their own thinking when it comes to these matters, this is the first step to being able to promote a change of thinking in others. Challenging bias is not always an easy task. SigXi members know that being a walking, talking example of a positive dominant lesbian can push bias aside and force individuals to make an assessment based on interaction and not merely appearances.

The objectives of Sigma Xi Theta Fraternity shall be:

• to organize and unite dominant lesbians who are innovative, charismatic and inspirational and elect to become a support system and share their knowledge;

• to inspire LGBT youth to live their lives openly and freely without fear of discrimination or persecution;

• to educate the community on women’s health issues;

• to promote equality and unity;

• to enlighten the community regarding LGBT issues.

SigXi intends to make an impact on the LGBT community in many ways. Our goals and aims will forever be expanding. Our founding Suns began the journey with the objective of organizing and uniting dominant lesbians with an innovative mind, charisma and the ability to inspire others. They wanted to bring women of action together to become a support system for others like them, to share their knowledge with them.

SigXi believes in the power of equality. Our goal is to harness that power by maintaining an environment where all members feel they are treated with fairness. Members who are confident in their voice being heard, their concerns being addressed, their membership being able to flourish, are better equipped to realize the organizations purpose.
