What is a Fraternity?
A fraternity is a group of men who believe and live by the same set
of values, and foster a close friendship through those values. These
values bind together not only the current chapter members, but
members and alumni throughout the country. Fraternity men
incorporate these values in all aspects of their lives, never
letting go of those beliefs. Sigma Phi Epsilon's values are Virtue,
Diligence, and Brotherly Love.
Why does Sigma Phi Epsilon pride itself on being
“different?”
SigEp prides itself on being different because that difference has
helped us come to lead the fraternity world. SigEps refuse to be
stereotyped as “frat boys,” nor its chapters as “animal houses.”
Sigma Phi Epsilon is dedicated to the idea that a fraternity is much
more than a social organization -- it is an institution of higher
learning; one that centers around the ideals of allowing one to live
his best life.
What is Sigma Phi Epsilon’s stance on hazing?
Sigma Phi Epsilon is clear and concise in its stance against hazing.
Hazing is illegal; therefore it has no place in the Fraternity.
Sigma Phi Epsilon holds its members to the highest possible
standard, so breaking the laws of the country, state, and university
will not be tolerated.
Sigma Phi Epsilon truly believes that the words “hazing” and
“fraternity” are not interchangeable. SigEp has, for many years,
been breaking the stereotype that fraternities haze. The National
Fraternity, through programming and leadership opportunities, has
promoted the idea of safe and responsible development. Hazing is the
direct opposite of everything Sigma Phi Epsilon represents.
Who are some of SigEp’s alumni, and what do they say about
the SigEp experience? Sigma Phi Epsilon has a long
tradition of alumni. These men excel in their respective fields.
Among them are businessmen, world leaders, renowned artists, and
all-star athletes.
The greatest thing about SigEp alumni is they truly believe in the
SigEp Experience. The proof is that our alumni continue to volunteer
to help chapters and members. They continually donate money to the
Sigma Phi Epsilon Educational Foundation for programs and
scholarships. SigEp alumni believe that the SigEp experience is a
lifetime commitment, and that is why they keep coming back to
support the fraternity and its endeavors. Check out some of Sigma
Phi Epsilon’s prominent alumni here.
My son is considering joining a SigEp chapter, what can I
expect?
You should expect he will be involved in the chapter, on campus, and
in the community. By your son becoming a SigEp, he will be exposed
to a life of balance and encouraged to pursue leadership.
