Sigma Tau Delta Centennial Convention

Visit the 2025 Centennial Convention Website!

Sigma Tau Delta will hold the closing ceremony for our centennial celebration at the 2025 Convention. Convention is a truly wonderful event that allows hundreds of Sigma Tau Deltans from around the globe to gather in one locale, share experiences and ideas, be recognized for their achievements, and participate in the official side of the Society. At the convention, opportunities abound to meet face-to-face with other students, faculty, and respected authors; make new friends; discuss the disciplines of the English language and literature; and enjoy the offerings of the convention's location.

Spotlight Author & Convention Theme

We are pleased to announce Willa Cather as the Spotlight Author. Cather spent over ten years living and working in Pittsburgh, but she has additional ties to many Sigma Tau Delta Regions. Cather's connection to various places influenced our adoption of her Pulitzer Prize winning novel’s title for our 2025 Convention theme: One of Ours.

In the coming months, please help us celebrate her work and watch for more information about next year's convention. We consider you “one of ours” and hope you will join us in Pittsburgh as we bring our Society’s Centennial celebration to a close.

Convention Co-Chairs:
Shannin Schroeder, Leigh Dillard, & Kevin Stemmler
