The national leadership confirmed that the Xi Nu chapter will be reestablished at Rutgers New Brunswick. We have successfully secured the formal commitment necessary to begin the reactivation process. Our team will now move to the administrative phase of coordinating with the university office of fraternity and sorority affairs.
Hello Ladies and Gentlemen! We are a collective of sophomores at Rutgers University-New Brunswick who are passionate about bringing the sorority that embodies sisterhood, feminism, women's empowerment, service, social engagement and political change back to our New Brunswick campus. The promotion of academic excellence and community service, principles on which Delta Sigma Theta, directly align to the customs and traditions upheld by our beloved university. Rutgers Camden and Rutgers Newark have the honor of hosting many of the Divine 9, historically black sororities and fraternities on their respective campuses. Why should the main campus of the appraised State university be excluded from this honor? The Xi Nu Chapter was dismantled about 7 years ago, and it's about time for them to COME BACK! If you agree with this argument, please show your support by digitally signing this petition! We plan to take this to the regional coordinator and the national president of Delta Sigma Theta, Inc. Thank you so much!
The growth of this petition has reached a level that necessitates an immediate shift in our strategy. I am currently finalizing the formal request package for the regional coordinator and will be scheduling a meeting to present our case directly.

Everyone deserves a second chance. Sororities in the black community are needed to keep us together and build a sisterhood especially in a predominantly black school. The Devine 9 deserve to be at Rutgers.

Undergraduate chapters are an integral part of Delta Sigma Theta's alumnae membership and inspiring young women on college campuses to sisterhood, scholarship and service only aids the greater RUTGERS community. Please re-instate their charter at the New Brunswick campus!

Queens,
I don't know any of you, but I absolutely support your initiative. It appears that we are currently experiencing the same situation at Kean University. It seems as if DST Undergraduate Chapters are slowly disappearing in the state of New Jersey. It would be awesome to seem the entire divine nine on all of our campuses. We need a safe space where black people can convene and most importantly, we need a sisterhood on each of our campuses that actively addresses the issues afflicting the black community as a whole. Continue on your mission and I'm hoping that I can organize the young Queens on my campus to take this same approach. I wish you all the best! Peace and love.

I firmly believe that the presence of more sororities in the divine 9 will enhance the black experience at Rutgers NB
