 The
fundamental purpose
of the Sigma Chi Fraternity is to cultivate an
appreciation of and commitment to the ideals of friendship, justice and
learning. These ideals and objectives have been at the heart of Sigma
Chi since its founding by seven men at Miami
University in Oxford,
Ohio, on June 28,1855.
These seven men believed that the principles they professed were imperfectly realized in other fraternal organizations. Although this vision of Sigma Chi was based upon the notion of shared ideals, they believed that true brotherhood would thrive best among men of different temperaments, talents and convictions. Our guiding principles, unchanged for almost 150 years, continue to define the essence of Sigma Chi. Like all Greek organizations, Sigma Chi's ideals and purposes are set forth in a secret document called our Ritual. Sigma Chi also has a set of signs, symbols and heraldry which supports our teachings. However our Fraternity's spirit is also reflected in many public pieces of literature. |
