Frankly, had it not been for Sig Ep, I would have likely been a leaf in the wind in college – my Sig Ep brothers helped keep me on a good path. Most of my contemporary Brothers (about 3 years on each side of my graduation year) continue to be in contact and get together. I count my Sig Ep undergraduate time as one of the most benificial learning experiences of my life – fortunate to have older Brothers to counsel and guide my thinking and actions and to have a dedicated chapter advisor to assist. We were blessed to have great older Brothers to teach by their example, as to academics, concern and love for each other and the need to become “men” – upholding the principles of our fraternity.

But first we must address the basic health and safety of our students by doing away with archaic and dangerous activities. ![]() “When we deliver on this mission, our entire society benefits from a generation of values-based leaders. “We believe these steps are necessary to accomplish our mission of promoting academic excellence and empowering our 14,000 young men to lead with integrity, not just now but for the rest of their lives,” said Warren. In the last two years, SigEp has removed pledging from its membership experience and established substance-free chapter houses as the nationwide standard. Sigma Phi Epsilon has demonstrated a commitment to creating a new normal for fraternities. ![]() For SigEp, there can be no more discussion about maintaining that status quo. ![]() “Sigma Phi Epsilon and our peers have unfortunately earned a reputation for being organizations that promote alcohol consumption, misogyny and violence. “As recent tragic events have demonstrated, fraternities today have real problems,” said SigEp CEO Brian Warren.
