FSU SigEp

Sigma Phi Epsilon (SigEp) was founded on November 1st, 1901 on the campus of Richmond College (now called the University of Richmond) with the intention of developing balanced men through the ideals of virtue, diligence, and brotherly love. The men of Sigma Phi Epsilon consistently exemplify the highest level of academic, social, and physical prowess in all aspects of life. Together, we place opportunity before each member in order to further his own personal development – not only for his college career but for his life beyond it. Throughout the decades, brothers of Sigma Phi Epsilon have practiced their values and embraced the stated desire of the Founders, “This Fraternity will be different.”

• 313,000+ lifetime members rank SigEp among the top 3 largest fraternities in the nation.

• Over the past two decades, SigEp has recruited more men than any other collegiate fraternity.

• SigEp was the first national fraternity to install a chapter in all 50 United States and today boasts over 340 chapters in total.

• The leader in fraternity leadership cultivation, SigEp hosts numerous leadership academies each year including Ruck Leadership Institute, Carlson Leadership Academy, EDGE, and Tragos Quest to Greece.
