ABOUT US

Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.

Sisterhood. Scholarship. Service. Social Action.

Who We Are

The Dynamic Delta Nu Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated was chartered on April 18, 1952, by ten visionary undergraduate women who brought the Sorority’s commitment to sisterhood, scholarship, service, and leadership to what was then Savannah State College. Guided by the example of Delta Sigma Theta’s 22 Founders and supported by the chapter’s first advisors, Juanita Sellers Stone and Donella Seabrook, Delta Nu established a legacy rooted in excellence and service.

For more than seven decades, Delta Nu has remained an active presence at Savannah State University and throughout the Savannah community. Through educational programming, public service, leadership, and community engagement, generations of Delta Nu women have continued to build upon the foundation established by the chapter’s charter members.
