Joining a fraternity
can be one of the most rewarding experiences you can have during
your collegiate years. And, although “going Greek” is a
lifetime commitment, choosing the right fraternity for you does
not have to be a difficult decision. Simply decide what is most
important to you in life and then find an organization that aligns
with those values.
Taken directly from our mission
statement, Sigma Nu Fraternity exists to develop ethical leaders
inspired by our three founding principles of Love, Honor and
Truth. Further, we work to develop the mind, heart and character
of each of our members so they, too, can realize our vision of “Excelling
with Honor.”
The
Iota Lambda chapter's dedication to grades makes them stand out
among other JSU fraternities:
"Sigma
Nu has one of the highest GPA's on campus. We prepare guys for the
future, we won the gold cup metal, and we rank # 1. We are
easygoing, fun loving group, that focuses on our priority by
excelling in our grades by having study groups. We help guys focus
on what they are in school for." - Sigma Nu Commander
"I
chose Sigma Nu because they have good personalities. All the guys
are different, and they do not have the exact same personalities
like the other fraternities. It's a different atmosphere and you
can learn from different people." - New Member
Sigma
Nu opposes the practice of Hazing
People often associate hazing with fraternities. Sigma Nu is
unique in the fact that we were founded based on honor, which
stems from our founders rebelling against the common practice of
hazing at Virginia Military Institute in Lexington, Virginia.
That principle still holds true today.
Sigma Nu is the
ONLY Honor Fraternity
Our founders at Virginia Military Institute lived by a code of
Honor. The Honor system at VMI requires each cadet to conform to
the duty imposed by his conscience that each act be governed by
a high sense of Honor. We were the first Fraternity to be
founded upon this honor principle. When lived out in the bonds
of fraternal brotherhood, the Honor principle brings a level of
integrity and excellence that is uncommon in the world today.
Tomorrow’s Traditions Start
with Someone – That Someone is You. While you are looking for
the right fraternity, we hope you seriously consider what Sigma Nu
has to offer – it could be one of the best decisions you will
ever make.
