Possibly disbanded in 1970s; last instance in Signal in 1970s.
Seems to have had a friendly rivalry with the Philomathean Society, also for Model and Normal School girls.

Scope and content

These two photographs, both from the same donor, depict groups of members of the Arguromuthos Sigma ("Argo") sorority in around 1941; only one photo is dated. The first shows the sisters at an outdoor picnic, while the second depicts the sorority in the drawing room of Allen Hall (the center portion of "ABE"). The two photos also include a largely incomplete list of names in each image, provided by the donor. No transcription.
