Why SigEp
Why SigEp is The Only Fraternity at CSU You Should Consider
Sigma Phi Epsilon is the leader on the campus of Colorado State University. SigEp is one of the original CSU fraternities and the only one on campus continuously active for over 90 years, since 1915.
SigEp is recognized as a premier student organization on campus. Our fraternity prides itself on being a balanced organization. We welcome men who represent the four principles of the Balanced Man Program - Leaders, Scholars, Athletes, and Gentlemen. Our chapter is different - No Hazing, No Pledging. This is what sets us apart as a leading fraternal organization at Colorado State and in the National Greek System.
We recruit men who have vision and a desire to improve themselves with an association with other success-oriented individuals. We realize that together, we can encourage one another to strive for excellence in all walks of life. Our brotherhood challenges one another to be the best and set an example for the fraternity system and the entire campus. We strive to be leaders at Colorado State , competitors on the intramural fields, diligent students in the classroom, and men with universal respect for self and others. Sigma Phi Epsilon is the leading fraternity at Colorado State and nationally.
We are always looking for men who want to be a part our brotherhood, which is why we recruit year-round. If you are interested in learning more about our chapter, please contact the V.P. of Recruitment, Andrew Dibala at (303) 895-5923 or through the e contact us page.
