Organized on November 3, 1905 by St. Cloud State faculty member Isabel Lawrence, Gamma Sigma Sigma was originally known as the Story Teller’s Club. Its purpose as a literary society for women to develop literary powers and improve ability to tell stories. The club aimed to broaden culture through reading and discussion, promote friendship, and develop character.
