We refer to the five women who founded Mu Sigma Upsilon as our founding mothers, for they achieved what mothers do and began a family. To this day they still care for and guide our sorority and its sisters.

“…for the strengthening of all women, Mu Sigma Upsilon was formed by five selected women officially recognized on November 21, 1981, here at Rutgers University. Its purpose is to unite all women from all different nationalities and share with them our theme “Women Always United.” Together, we share the same purpose concerning our academic, political, and social interests.”

~Eve Bracero, Founding Mother

We thank our Founding Mothers for their continuing dedication, guidance, and contribution to Mu Sigma Upsilon and our surrounding communities:

A-1 Eve Bracero
A-2 Lillian Sierra
A-3 Karinee Candelario
A-4 Ruth Gonzalez
