Rush Chair

"Sigma Pi upholds a standard that few other houses do. This is true only because of the high quality of individuals that have come out to rush in the search of something greater. Work is useless without results and Sigma Pi's results speak for themselves: IM Champions, one of the largest and diverse fraternities on campus and the biggest and best philanthropy on campus, Sigma Pi Nerf Superbowl. This ability to excel in so many aspects of life is what separates us from other houses on campus and which also sets the standard for the next pledge class. We are looking for individuals who like to have a good time but also know the meaning of responsibility and know what it feels like to dominate."

The Fraternity Experience
Membership in Sigma Pi Fraternity is a life long experience. From the first moments of pledging to the Adytum on High, a member of Sigma Pi holds and maintains a unique idea of brotherhood. As a man who has been found to possess the correct attitude and academic potential to further the ideals of Sigma Pi, you have been invited to join into a brotherhood shared by more than 85,000 members, spanning over nine decades. As pledges, you hold the potential for leadership abilities that may be developed more fully because of your affiliation with Sigma Pi Fraternity.

When a man is accepted as a member of Sigma Pi, he learns that a great deal of time and effort have gone into supplying material for his instruction. This may be best explained by relating the facts of what makes a chapter strong. A properly instructed, well educated pledge makes a better chapter member, and a better chapter member makes a good alumnus. That Sigma Pi has gone to these measures demonstrates that the international organization is interested in the well-being of not only the individual chapters but also the members that comprise these chapters. Sigma Pi enables a man to not only build from his own experiences, but also allows him to learn from the experiences of others.

The hard work that accompanies a quality education is demonstrated repeatedly upon every application of those teachings. Sigma Pi relies on the belief that man's goal is to form a better world and enrich his surroundings with the application of wisdom and knowledge gained through education. Sigma Pi teaches the fundamentals for leadership ability, business, sociology, responsibility and general administrative skills. Members who are involved in the chapter and readily accept responsibilities are learning valuable lessons that will assist them in their decision making for years to come.

Being a member of Sigma Pi automatically gives you the distinction of being different. Our Fraternity desires those wishing to become outstanding members of Sigma Pi and leaders of their communities be exactly that. With the assistance of the Fraternity and the ambition that young men in Sigma Pi hold, we hope that every member of Sigma Pi gains the utmost from not only this Fraternity but also from his college experience.

What is Rush?
Rush is a time of year early in the beginning of each semester where fraternities and sororities seek out new members to fill thier ranks. Many formal and informal social events are held by the greek organizations during rush to engage students to consider thier respective fraternities. We encourage you to check Sigma Pi's regular rush activities. You will find that no other fraternity in William & Mary compares to Sigma Pi. The Greek system has adapted its focus to meet the expectations of today's college student, while maintaining the strong traditions each organization was built on. Fraternity membership can provide you with the means to balance your many demands, excel academically, make lifelong friendships and enhance your college experience.

But why Rush? Friendship, Scholarship, Leadership and Community Service are a few good reasons. The Greek system has adapted its focus to meet the expectations of today's college student, while maintaining the strong traditions each organization was built on. Fraternity membership can provide you with the means to balance your many demands, excel academically, make lifelong friendships and enhance your college experience.

Brotherhood
Brotherhood and the strong bond between our actives is what makes Sigma Pi different from other fraternities on campus. You join a line that goes back over 100 years and has more than 80,000 members. We became a part of William and Mary in 1931 and have seen over 670 alumni pass through our doors. Despite all this history, there are always new opportunities for you to take leadership roles and even create your own traditions.

Social Activity
With a social calendar that is possibly the best in Williamsburg, we definitely know how to kick back. We try to have at least one social event a week - mixers with other sororities, theme dances (such as the only annual dance party at the College: Bermuda), formals (our last formal was at Virginia Beach), parties, delly tabs, brotherhood events (Hooters nights), or just hanging out, there will always be something going on.

Scholarship
On top of all the fun, Sigma Pi still knows how to make the grades. We have the highest GPA of all Sigma Pi chapters in the U.S. We strive to maintain an equal balance in everything that we do to make the best out of our college career. Higer grades benefit the fraternity a great deal and in return a brother is always rewarded for his academic excellence.

Athletics
We participate in many club and intramural sports. Each year we consistently compete for top honors in each sport. Currently we are the champions in indoor and outdoor soccer, volleyball, runners up in floor hockey and racquetball. We are the defending champions of the Fraternity cup and look to keep the title with us as long as possible.

Campus Involvement/Ace Project
On campus, there are Sigma Pi's in leadership positions throughout other organizations. Our philanthropy is the Make a Wish Foundation, and we've also been involved in helping with many activities on campus. Together, campus and community involvement really help make well-rounded men. No other fraternity or sorority in North America completes a  project like this one.  The Altruistic Campus Experience is unlike any other program ever created.  Each year Sigma Pi chapters conduct an ACE Project on their campus in order to give back to their University.  Here at Sigma Pi, we believe in instilling pride and respect for one's alma mater by directly performing philanthropic activities and giving back to the university or its faculty, staff, and administration.  With ACE, you can do just that. 

Job Advantages
Recruiters know that the fraternity experience prepares a man for success. Although fraternity alumni number less than 2% of the population, they make up 52% of the U.S. Senate, 33% of the House of Representatives and 75% of the top executives of the 500 largest business corporations. Alumni can also help a brother get a job.

The Power of the Two Percent
Since the founding of the American college fraternity movement in 1776, fraternities have grown to symbolize leadership, independence, scholastic achievement and service to their various campuses and communities. Fraternity men represent a very small percentage, only two percent, of the male population in the United States.  However, that two percent is a very powerful group of individuals!  Fraternity men have gone on to hold many of the top positions in our nation, from the business world to the political arena.

  • Approximately 80 percent of the top executives of Fortune 500 companies are fraternity men.
  • The majority (71 percent) of those listed in Who's Who in America are fraternity men.
  • Seventy-six percent of current United States senators and congressmen are fraternity men.
  • Forty percent of the 47 Supreme Court justices since 1910 have been fraternity men.
  • One hundred of the 158 cabinet members since 1900 have been fraternity men.
  • All but two United States Presidents since 1825 have been fraternity men.

 It is certainly no surprise that today's college and university students express a keen interest in the Greek system.   The opportunities are endless, and the benefits speak for themselves.  Each year, thousands of young men enter the working world with the competitive advantage of fraternity experience and alumni contacts.
