Mission
“We, the members of, Chi Upsilon Sigma National Latin Sorority, Incorporated, aware of the prejudices and obstacles facing the minority women of our communities, dedicate ourselves to improving these conditions and to working towards the betterment of all women. We have unified ourselves through the sisterhood of Corazones Unidos Siempre and by our Founders’ ideals of open communication and community service, as well as the development of political, educational, cultural and social awareness. We devote ourselves to this challenge, to be achieved through hard work, patience and the collective effort to educate, as is exemplified in our motto, ‘Wisdom through Education’.”

C.U.S. was founded during a time of political and social resurgence. Bred as a grassroots organization for change, the Founding Mothers focused on four different areas on which to develop a strong awareness: Educational, Political, Cultural and Social.
