RUSH
PROSPECTIVE MEMBERS

In Sigma Nu, every man who joins will have the opportunity to run for one of various leadership positions. Through formal training, resources, coaching, experience and practice, these officers will develop their leadership skills as they learn how to manage and lead an organization.

To develop ethical leaders inspired by the principles of Love, Honor and Truth.

Community service (giving time) and philanthropy (raising and donating money) are important parts of Sigma Nu.

Our chapter organizes community service projects, participates in other campus organization service activities and provides service opportunities for individual members. We’ll also host philanthropy events and participate in other Greek and student organization philanthropies.

Sigma Nu exists to cultivate and develop ethical leaders. An education is the most important part of that formula. Sigma Nu, in accordance with the North-American Interfraternity Conference (the governing arm of over 60 national fraternities), has minimum standards that hold chapters accountable for attaining a chapter-average GPA at or above the respective campus' All-Men's Average.

Since its founding in 1869, Sigma Nu has been fundamentally opposed to hazing. In fact, one of the primary reasons the Fraternity’s Founders formed Sigma Nu was to protest the hazing practices that was occurring at the Virginia Military Institute at the time.

Our program is called LEAD, an acronym for Leadership, Ethics, Achievement and Development. The Sigma Nu LEAD program is the finest fraternity education program in the Greek world. However, it is not meant to simply orient you to membership as a Sigma Nu. Its purpose is to develop all men to be ethical leaders on campus and beyond. Sigma Nu will compliment and enhance your other leadership experiences in combination with other leadership development programs, student government, athletics and other organizations.

The value you gain from membership in Sigma Nu Fraternity grows during your college years and continues throughout your entire life. The leadership skills you develop as a collegian will serve you long after you graduate and the bonds of brotherhood strengthened in college will only grow stronger as you grow older. As a Sigma Nu, you will have the unique opportunity to network with a diverse brotherhood, united by the common bond of our Fraternity.
