History of Iota Iota Iota:

 

Iota Iota Iota, the Women's Studies Honor Society, was created at the Metropolitan State College of Denver in 1988. The Alpha Chapter of Iota Iota Iota (a.k.a. Triota) at Metropolitan State College of Denver

held its first induction ceremony in the fall of 1992 in order to recognize the academic achievements of students in Women's Studies. The Greek letter, iota, was selected for the name to represent the three goddesses Inana, Ishtar, and Isis. Iota Iota Iota strives to maintain the feminist values central to Women's Studies: egalitarianism, inclusiveness, and a celebration of the diversity of women's experiences.

The foundation of this society grew out of a desire for recognition of achievement in women's studies, and the mission of the society is one of service to other women students. The purpose of Triota is to encourage a

nd support scholarship and excellence in women's studies.
