You're probably familiar with the community efforts of your local Delta Sigma Theta (DST) chapter. This historically black (but all-inclusive) sorority was founded at Howard University in 1913. You can become a DST sister if you're still in college/university or if you have already graduated with a baccalaureate degree. To become a member, you'll need to be in good academic standing, attend an informational meeting, and fill out the application. Once the chapter receives all your application materials, they'll vote on whether or not to accept you. You'll need to get a majority of votes in order to become a member of DST.
