“Literature for me has always meant the world and to be given the opportunity to study it and be part of an organization that not only encourages it but also strives to promote literature and reading, enables me to stand tall and advocate for the beautiful community of scholars who are a part of Sigma Tau Delta.
As an international student moving to the United States to pursue a Masters (and subsequently a Ph.D.) was an overwhelming situation to be in. However, when I was invited to join Sigma Tau Delta in 2021, I found a sense of belonging and community. The opportunity to present my research and talk about my love for Literature was something I had craved for since I was a young girl—having finally found kindred spirits in fellow Deltians, I felt right at home. The support and encouragement from local chapters as well as on a national level to embrace ones love for Literature is warming to the heart. I will forever remain in gratitude of my Chapter Advisor and the Sigma Tau Delta community for making me “one of theirs”.
Sincerity. Truth. Design”
