Preparation for Brotherhood  

Preparation for brotherhood is centered around a five-week model calendar. The program provides pledges with structured activities and schedules that maximize a pledge’s experience and helps ensure he emerges from it with the training necessary to become a contributing brother to Sigma Chi. This is the first program of its kind in the world of Greek letter societies. During each week of the 5 week program brothers learn about one or two of our core values, as well as participate in deeply introspective activities designed to help you better understand yourself and the type of individual that you wish to become. You will learn the history of Sigma Chi, its designs and purposes in society and you will be able to make an educated decision on whether or not Sigma Chi is right for you.

In addition to the in-person sessions hosted by our brothers, pledges will be introduced to Sigma Chi Leadership Institute, which houses the Fraternity’s online component of pledgeship. Potential new brothers will hear directly from past Grand Consuls about what they value about the Fraternity, and access online courses to prove effective learning. The online portion is fast-paced and creates more time for pledges to connect with active brothers and create bonds with the rest of his pledge class.
