SIGMA CHI
PREFER CHARACTER OVER CONFORMITY
Sigma Chi began because a few good men chose to act.
In 1855, seven young men, Benjamin Piatt Runkle, Thomas Cowan Bell, William Lewis Lockwood, Isaac M. Jordan, Daniel William Cooper, Franklin Howard Scobey and James Parks Caldwell, wanted something better in a fraternity during their collegiate experience, and from that recognition, a dream was born — the fraternity of Sigma Chi.

They were singular in vision.
They found in themselves and each other an uncommon strength of character to pursue a dream and to pass that dream on to other young men who would carry it forward. Their dream was simple — to enhance the leadership abilities of men by refining their character through the framework of Friendship, Justice and Learning — our three guiding principles.

They set the foundation for a lifelong course of development that has since that infamous day on June 28, 1855, Sigma Chi has initiated 358,934 members (as of this writing) across more than 300 chapters and through 167 years. Our total living membership is 267,834 men – with just over 14,000 of those men currently occupying our 235 collegiate chapters.

The ranks of Sigma Chis now include titans of industry, celebrities, political leaders, husbands, fathers, brothers and many more. Each member brings so many different characteristics to the world, yet we all bring the same endowment of character that our world today so badly needs.
Principle-driven leaders are needed now more than ever before.
Sigma Chi is the premier men’s fraternal organization on the planet – bar none. We owe that success to an incredible history and heritage which has been continuously built upon since 1855 when seven young men identified an injustice in the world and set out to correct it by living a life of purpose framed through the universal and timeless principles of Friendship, Justice and Learning.

Sigma Chi has navigated the better part of two centuries of existence by evolving to meet the needs of the members of the organization. We have evolved from seven men meeting in one room in a small town in Oxford, OH to a world-leading fraternal organization with a global footprint.

To read a letter prepared for our Gamma Psi brothers by Sigma Chi's Executive Director, Michael Church, click here. It's a great letter capturing our chapter's history, recent trends, with a forward looking perspective. The key takeaways is, Sigma Chi is undergoing transformational change. Sigma Chi is the premier men’s fraternal organization on the planet – bar none.
Sigma Chi is all about creating leaders of tomorrow. We will soon be the first fraternal organization to offer a true co-educational learning experience for young men, through the Sigma Chi Leadership Institute. With all our planned changes, Sigma Chi at MSU with become the most covered fraternity on campus..
