RSO - Sigma Phi Epsilon

The Sigma Phi Epsilon (SigEp) Massachusetts Alpha Chapter at the University of Massachusetts – Amherst has been one of the top fraternities both at the university and national since it’s founding in 1912. The Brothers of SigEp Mass Alpha are constantly striving to help each other become better individuals, and contribute to both the University and Amherst Community.

SigEp revolutionized the fraternity movement in 1991 by unveiling the Balanced Man Program (BMP), a concept of single-tiered membership and continuous development that begins the day a brother joins. SigEp believes the stereotypical fraternity experience does not fulfill the needs of today’s college male. The BMP offers an experience focused on scholarship, leadership, professional development and life skills. Members learn to live their best lives through unique, rewarding programming tailored to fit their needs and prepare them for the journey of life ahead.

The Massachusetts Alpha chapter has a long standing history of success and in both building our brothers and our community.

Sigma Phi Epsilon was founded on November 1, 1901 at Richmond College, now the University of Richmond, in Richmond, Va. Since then, SigEp has grown to become one of the largest fraternities in the country.

Around 15,000 SigEp undergraduates are on 228 college campuses each year. They are among the more than 320,000 lifetime brothers who have joined since 1901.

SigEp was founded with the Cardinal Principles of Virtue, Diligence and Brotherly Love. Our mission is “Building Balanced Men,” which is achieved through a commitment to Sound Mind and Sound Body.
