Our vision is “Building Balanced Leaders for the World’s Communities,” which is achieved through a commitment to Sound Mind and Sound Body. Our mission is to recruit the best men, provide them with the best experiences, and surround them in the best environments.

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.

    • 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.”
