The Why of Sigma Chi

January 4, 2010
Guillermo Contreras,
Recruitment Chairman

So you've decided to rush a fraternity, but you're not sure which one to pick. Or maybe you feel all of the choices on campus would suit you fine. Maybe you're not sure why Sigma Chi is any different than the others.

As Sigma Chis, we pride ourselves on our diversity. And I don't just mean our skin color; I'm talking about the array of backgrounds and interests that comprise us. Walk through our house and you'll find that each of our brothers is unlike any other, but each holds true to the beliefs and ideals of the Sigma Chi Fraternity. And that's no coincidence: We actively recruit members of different temperaments, talents and convictions, who also, at the same time, strive toward our demanding morals.

The Jordan Standard, proposed by one of our founders, Isaac M. Jordan, is the document by which we judge all potential brothers-to-be. If you visit our house during Rush Week, your name will come up during chapter deliberations--and, should you meet the measures of the Jordan Standard, you'll receive
an invitation to join our brotherhood.

If you accept, you'll join other great men: Mike Ditka, David Letterman, Drew Brees, John Wayne, Sean Payton, Woody Harrelson, Mark DeRosa, Ben Savage, Rip Torn and President Grover Cleveland.

By joining Sigma Chi, you'll become an essential part of our rich legacy as one of the best-known and most prestigious fraternities in the world. You'll become part of an extensive alumni network, complete with job offers and guidance. An individual among a group of 40 quality gentlemen.

In our brotherhood, you will not just go through the Sigma Chi experience, but you'll also grow through the experience. You'll gain a place to study, work and relax--and people to study, work and relax with. An opportunity to attend the best fraternity leadership conferences in the world and gain leadership within the chapter itself. Access to scholarships and other kinds of support. Cheaper housing. Friends of lifelong duration. Pride.

And, above all, a family away from home unlike any you've ever experienced.
