. . .from within the Mighty Midwest Region, in a twin-city community that is home to two major universities and numerous employers, Bloomington-Normal Deltas frequently enjoyed the sisterhood and fellowship of Sorors living in and/or relocating to the area. With, at that time, two undergraduate chapters, Alumnae Sorors saw the need to establish a graduate chapter of Delta Sigma Theta. On March 20, 1982, area Sorors met in Hovey Hall at Illinois State University to discuss the establishment of an Alumnae chapter.

With a clear vision in the hearts and minds of 12 women, the Bloomington-Normal Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated was chartered on March 27, 1983, by Hortense Golden Canady, the sorority’s 18th National President.
