| Chi Upsilon Sigma has been in existence since April 29, 1980, incepted on the New Brunswick Campus of Rutgers the State University of New Jersey. Our founders are 7 Latinas who had the desire to create an organization to promote leadership among the Latino community. More importantly, it was their desire to create a sisterhood; a place away from home in which the members could feel the strong sense of family, which is such a force in the Latino culture. Over the years, we have grown to include women of a variety of ethnicities and cultures. Our common calling is a respect for one another and the ideals of our Founding Mothers, rooted in womanhood, individuality, solidarity, dedication, openheartedness and maturity, as well as an appreciation for the Latino culture and all its aspects. |

The GCB is comprised of alumnae who serve as executive members.The GCB is also responsible for coordinating and implementing all national events |
