Delta Sigma was a women's social club at the University of Chicago, founded in 1918. While it had a Greek name, the group was not a nationally recognized sorority or a member of the university's inter-club council. The group sponsored parties, dances, and other events on campus.
The collection consists of loose scrapbook leaves with photographs, correspondence, clippings, greeting cards, lists of party guests, invitations, programs and other ephemera.
