Sister Sessions // History
Following the Membership Drive all N-sisters participate in sister sessions. Sister Sessions serve as a way to acclimate new N-sisters to the purpose and history of NCNW while allowing veteran N-sisters to recommit themselves to another year of sisterhood and service. Each sister session will be scheduled to take no more than 2 hours.

In order to meet the 3-3-3 a N-sister must attend/participate and be counted for 3 General Body meetings, 3 programs/events/sister sessions, and 3 community service events. 3-3-3 can be reached in many ways and is determined over the course of an entire academic semester. A N-sister has until the end of each semester to reach 3-3-3; exceptions are taken at the dicretion of the E-board
