Our Programs
SigEp’s member development program provides the foundation of the SigEp experience, and represents our commitment to being a valued partner in higher education. The Balanced Man Program is the centerpiece of the SigEp Experience and provides the skills, knowledge and growth that today’s student needs to be successful during and after college. The Balanced Man Program is a non-pledging, non-hazing, four-year, personal, academic, leadership and professional skills development experience. The philosophical tenets of the BMP are rooted in the founding values of the Fraternity. They guide every aspect of the Balanced Man Program:
■ Equal rights and responsibilities – Full membership upon joining
■ Continuous development – Growing throughout life
■ Accountability – Committing to SigEp’s high standards
■ Living the Ritual – Incorporating SigEp’s values into everyday life
■ Mentoring – Maximizing growth through guidance and support
Who we are
Sigma Phi Epsilon was founded in 1901 on the campus of Richmond College (now called the University of Richmond) in Richmond, Virginia. The story of its founding by 12 determined men set the stage for the growth and success of one of the country’s premier fraternal organizations. The history of the Fraternity reflects the times, through great wars and profound cultural shifts. Throughout the decades, the men of Sigma Phi Epsilon have practiced their values and embraced the stated desire of the Founders, “This Fraternity will be different.”
