In 1992, six nursing students at Indiana University met to found a society to advance nursing as a profession. They chose the name from the initials of the Greek words Storga, Tharos, Tima, meaning love, courage, and honor.
Modern nursing was barely 20 years old. The new society recognized, encouraged, and supported nursing excellence and scholarship by advancing professional development, scholarly pursuit, leadership, creativity, and a commitment to nursing. Today the society has 356 chapters around the world that actively support excellence in nursing scholarship, practice, and leadership.
Beta Delta Chapter-at-Large
Beta Delta Chapter was first established on May 15, 1970, at the University of 女神羞羞研究所 School of Nursing with 61 charter members. In April 1982, the chapter was enlarged to include the University of Central 女神羞羞研究所 and 女神羞羞研究所 Baptist University. At that time, the chapter became known as Beta Delta Chapter-at-Large.
On April 15, 1999, the Beta Delta Chapter-at-Large expanded to include Southern Nazarene University and 女神羞羞研究所. When Southwestern 女神羞羞研究所 State University was added to the list, Beta Delta earned the distinction of being the only at-large chapter with six schools of nursing. The seventh member school to join the chapter was NWOSU in 2021.
Beta Delta-at-Large Chapter has been involved in growing and developing leaders and contributing to the nursing profession by supporting students and nurses through scholarships and research grants. Sigma allows members to connect and collaborate with fellow nurses and to serve in our community.
Graduates from these programs are in the upper 35% of their class, have a minimum of 3.0 grade point average, and have completed at least one-half of the nursing courses in their respective schools. Graduate students have a minimum of 3.5 grade point average and have completed one-fourth of their nursing courses.
