New Year, New Opportunities: Let’s Shine Together in 2025 - 2026

Dear Beta Zeta at Large  Members,

As we enter this beautiful holiday season, I want to wish each of you peace, joy, and moments of rest surrounded by those you love. It’s a time to reflect on all we’ve accomplished together — and to look ahead with gratitude and excitement.

I’ve just returned from Sigma’s Biennial Convention, renewed and inspired by fresh ideas and global connections that will continue to shape our chapter’s growth in the year ahead.

This fall marked a truly historic milestone for Beta Zeta-at-Large. During our Chapter Charter Amendment and Induction Ceremony on October 30, we officially welcomed Bay Path University into Sigma. We have been collaborating with their nursing program for years, and it is an honor to now call them our official Sigma partner.

A heartfelt welcome to all our new inductees from Bay Path University and across our member schools American International College, Elms College, Westfield State University, and University of Massachusetts Amherst! You are now part of a vibrant community dedicated to scholarship, leadership, and service. We are here to connect and support you — please reach out, get involved, and let us know how we can help you grow in your Sigma journey.

As we celebrate this season of giving, I invite each of you to offer a small gift of your time — volunteer for a committee, share your story, mentor a student, or help at an upcoming event. Every act of service strengthens our collective impact.

Let us embrace our new call to action: LEAD TOGETHER — Our Voice, Our Value, Our Impact.
This is our moment to uplift our voices, honor our shared values, and amplify our impact as nurse leaders.

Wishing you all a wonderful holiday season and a bright, inspired New Year!

With gratitude and renewed energy,
Wendy Sergeant, DNP, PMHNP
President, Beta Zeta-at-Large Chapter
