Welcome and Outcomes On behalf of the Sigma Board of Directors, Sigma members throughout the world, and the Sigma staff, we welcome you to the Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing’s 46th Biennial Convention. Thank you for joining us and 2,000 of your colleagues from more than 50 countries around the world. How the world has changed since we were last together in 2019. We acknowledge our personal and shared experience within these extraordinary times as the global COVID-19 pandemic has impacted all of us in some way. We also recognize the loss of our colleagues, family, and friends. Today, perhaps more than ever, we are grateful for Sigma nurses and the work you do. We recognize your efforts and your impact, and we offer our profound thanks. The 46th Biennial Convention officially begins our 100th anniversary celebration! Since the actual 100th anniversary happens on 5 October 2022, we will celebrate this fantastic milestone across two conventions— this year and again in 2023. We hope you note the many ways we recognize our founders, our history, and the 100th anniversary. We believe Sigma’s recognition and support of nurses is as great and relevant today as it was 100 years ago. We believe that love, courage, and honor still matter.
We strive to make Sigma’s 46th Biennial Convention an opportunity for you to connect with colleagues, restore your spirit, and find ways to Infuse Joy. Whether you are attending virtually or observing our enhanced safety protocols in person in Indianapolis, we hope you’ll make the most of our first-ever hybrid convention. We look forward to sharing these days with you. Once again, welcome! Sincerely,
and Richard Ricciardi, PhD, CRNP, FAANP, FAAN Sigma 2019-2021 President
Elizabeth Madigan, PhD, RN, FAAN Sigma Chief Executive Officer

Escape Rooms
Clinical Escape Room – Shocking Escape: A Clinical Cardiovascular Escape Room Sunday-Monday, 7-8 November
This is no ordinary intensive care shift! You notice that your patient is showing signs of progressive shock, but his door is locked, and the key is missing! Your team must use its clinical knowledge to gain access before his time is up. This clinical escape room showcases multiple puzzles that are both innovative and affordable. Collaborate with other team members to complete the tasks—and consider how a similar game may grow the knowledge and teamwork of your students, staff, or local chapter. Not a cardiac expert? No problem. Multiple resources are provided. Feel free to sign up with your colleagues—or network with any group!
Sigma Escape Room – Study the Past to Secure the Future Sponsored by Omicron Delta Chapter Saturday-Monday, 6-8 November Journey through time with Sigma to locate lost pearls of wisdom in order to help cultivate the future of nursing.

Charge nurses/frontline leaders, around the globe, are the first line of leadership for both patients and staff. This evidence-based course will enhance their ability to manage patient flow, conflict, staff performance, and concerns from patient, family, or staff interdepartmental colleagues. A proactive approach to training could be the first step to structural empowerment and create a desirable organizational culture with positive financial impacts.
Sigma offers a wide variety of nursing continuing professional development (CPD) courses, and institutional discounts are available! Email us at solutions@sigmamarketplace.org to get started.

100 YEARS OF Sigma
On Thursday, 5 October 1922, the Indiana Secretary of State approved the application from six nursing students at the Indiana University Training School for Nurses to form Sigma Theta Tau, a nursing honor society. As you might remember from your induction ceremony, Sigma Theta Tau’s six founders were Elizabeth Russell Belford, Edith Moore Copeland, Marie Hippensteel Lingeman, Dorothy Garrigus Adams, Elizabeth McWilliams Miller, and Mary Tolle Wright, all aided by their teacher and director, Ethel Palmer Clarke.
to celebrating Sigma and its rich history throughout the upcoming biennium.
As you reflect on our organization, take a moment, pause, and consider Sigma’s impact over the last century and learn more about our founders and our global values. Please take time to reflect on the contributions of the hundreds of thousands of nurses who have served and continue to serve as leaders and members of our great organization. Consider the collective impact that Sigma members have made on the health and well-being of patients and communities, academia, colleagues, the nursing profession, and global healthcare. You may find yourself in awe of Sigma’s past, inspired by the present, and envision a bright and bountiful future. Parallel pandemics
As of Tuesday, 5 October 2021, Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing, or simply Sigma, officially began its 100th year. Let the enormity of that statement sink in for a moment: 100 years celebrating nursing excellence. What a milestone for our organization! We’re looking forward
For many of us, our thoughts about the past are influenced by today’s challenging and unprecedented world events. And, though much has changed, there are distinct parallels between the years preceding Sigma’s founding and the years leading up to its 100th anniversary. Our very own founders lived through the 1918
influenza pandemic, which lasted through 1920, and that event undoubtedly shaped their personal journeys just as the current pandemic is shaping ours. Now, as then, we are in the midst of a global healthcare crisis overburdening our profession, our colleagues, our families, our friends, and our communities. And, although the last century has brought tremendous advances in healthcare—including the development and production of vaccines—we still see vast differences in different country and regional capabilities in vaccine acquisition and administration. We still see health inequities and misaligned public policies affecting quality care, treatment, and access. We still see hospitals and health systems being overwhelmed. We still see too many people suffering and dying.
as now, there was resistance to acceptance of public health mitigation strategies and misinformation spread by the public. Rather than be discouraged, Sigma’s founders saw an opportunity to champion nursing and the role of women as leaders in society; to reflect and act on the tenets of love, courage, and honor; and to recognize and reward excellence in nursing. They created a way to infuse joy into what was—and still is—the challenging, rewarding, and exciting journey of a career in nursing.
Added to and complicating the current pandemic is an unrelenting barrage of misinformation and conspiracy theories. On a daily basis, we see people who would rather trust a TikTok video than science and evidence-based information. This can be dispiriting and evoke widespread distrust. The onslaught of climate crises, COVID-19 variants, lack of PPE, staffing shortages, and resistance to evidence and science has had a cumulative effect that takes a huge toll. We live in an environment where the daily inputs to our mind, body, and soul can be overwhelming. It is in the context of this environment, when you think of Sigma’s founders, you are likely in awe of their vision, purpose, and resolve. These six women had seen the worst effects of war, disaster, and disease as they chose to pursue nursing careers. World War I, which ended in 1919, had exacerbated the influenza pandemic and contributed to a worldwide nursing shortage. Then, as now, there were deep inequities in access to healthcare and ability to provide it. Then, as now, climate factors influenced the spread of disease. Then,

Could the founders have imagined how their positive message and creative vision would resonate with nurses, nurse educators, and nursing students? Could they have imagined how Sigma would grow, evolve, adapt, and thrive to become the global organization it is today? Could the founders have foreseen that, a century on, another global pandemic would plunge the world—and our profession—again into crisis?
Love, courage, honor ... and joy The last two years have been unrelenting. Nurses have been called upon to do the seemingly impossible . . . and sometimes the unthinkable. Some nurses are understandably tired, resentful, and angry. Even when it’s difficult to find the right words and correct misaligned policies, recognition and support are still important, necessary sentiments. Recognition says, “We see you.” Support says, “We’re here for you and are taking action, knowing that the demands on you are unbearable.” At Sigma, we believe the need for our organization’s recognition and support of nurses is as great and relevant today as it was 100 years ago. We believe that infusing joy is a necessary pathway to long-term success and sustainability of the profession. And we believe that love, courage, and honor still matter.
Sigma has always seen nursing as one profession. We recognize and support nurses regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, belief system, or nursing specialty. We have always been more about what unites us than what divides us. And we can thank our six visionary founders for firmly establishing this world view. Here’s to our 100th year ... and the next 100.
This piece was adapted from a Nursing Centered article by Sigma President Richard Ricciardi, PhD, CRNP, FAANP, FAAN, to honor and celebrate Sigma’s Founders Day. You can also read more about Sigma’s beginnings in a blog post from Indiana University’s bicentennial celebration. Both are available at SigmaNursing.org/100.
