Sigma Alpha Iota (ΣΑΙ [1] Professional Fraternity Association .[2]
History
Founding
Sigma Alpha Iota (Alpha Chapter) was founded on June 12, 1903 at the University School of Music [3] [4] Ann Arbor , Michigan by seven women: Elizabeth A. Campbell, Frances Caspari, Minnie Davis Sherrill, Leila Farlin Laughlin, Nora Crane Hunt, Georgina Potts, and Mary Storrs Andersen.
The next chapter of the fraternity, Beta, was chartered in 1904 at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois . Chapters have now been chartered at over 300 universities, conservatories, and colleges.
Title IX and membership
Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 , enacted on June 23, 1972, prohibits discrimination based on gender in educational programs receiving federal funding . This prohibition extends to professional societies for students enrolled at universities that receive federal funds for student financial aid or other programs. However, social organizations, such as social fraternities and sororities, are specifically exempted. In order to remain a fraternity of women, Sigma Alpha Iota petitioned for an exemption from Title IX from the U.S. Department of Education as a music fraternity that would initiate only women at the undergraduate level, and men and women at the professional level. In 1981, the fraternity was officially granted exemption from Title IX by the DOE to remain single-sex as a social organization.[5] Professional Fraternity Association .
SAI Philanthropies, Inc.
Created in 1974, Sigma Alpha Iota, Inc. is the charitable arm of the fraternity. Its mission is to "promote all aspects of music creation, performance and scholarship; and encourage service for and through music on the campus, in the community, in the nation, and throughout the world."[6] [7]
MacDowell, Pan's Cottage
Pan's Cottage (left) and Colony Hall at MacDowell. SAI Philanthropies also supports Pan's Cottage, a house at MacDowell, a retreat for Creative Artists in Peterborough, New Hampshire . The cottage was donated by SAI in 1918 and houses artists in residence. Pan's Cottage can accommodate up to 12 artists and is the largest residence at MacDowell. SAI also provides continuing financial support to the cottage, including utilities, general repairs, and replacement of furnishings. In 2018, members of SAI supported a $100,000 renovation project for Pan's Cottage. SAI also supports the greater MacDowell mission, including a $75,000 donation in 2007 to restore and preserve Edward MacDowell's music room at Hillcrest Farm.[8] [9]
Inter-American Music Awards
The Inter-American Music Awards is a triennial competition for young composers from North, Central, and
South America. The first award was presented in 1948. Selected by a panel of well-known composers, the winning composition is premiered at a Sigma Alpha Iota National Convention and is published by C. F. Peters Corporation under the direction of Sigma Alpha Iota. The composer receives a monetary prize and royalties are shared between the composer and Sigma Alpha Iota.[8]
Support for musicians with special needs
Since 1959 SAI Philanthropies, Inc. has assisted blind and musicians with visual impairments by contributing to the Braille Transcription Project and Bold Note Music Project, which help transcribe music into formats more easily accessible for the vision impaired.[8]
People-to-People
Since 1963, SAI's People-to-People project has provided material assistance (instruments and accessories,
scores, books, teaching materials) and encouragement to schools, music organizations, and musicians in
developing countries. Musicians in more than 75 countries have received aid through this program.[8]
