Alumni
A Lifelong Commitment
Membership in Sigma Chi is a lifelong commitment. Through formal and informal programs, our alumni have many opportunities to remain engaged with the Chapter and Fraternity. Their support is critical to the long-term success of both our undergraduate chapter as a whole and our undergraduate brothers individually.
Alumni Engagement
There are several ways for our alumni to remain engaged with the chapter and Fraternity. For more information about any of these opportunities, please fill out the Alumni Inquiry form below.
Donate
Alumni donations to the Sigma Chi Foundation support the Fraternity’s leadership initiatives and educational scholarship needs of its members.
Mentor
Alumni mentors provide meaningful direction and guidance to undergraduate brothers and can get them on a path to success after graduation.
Volunteer
Alumni volunteers work directly with chapter leaders and serve as liaisons between the chapter and various community interests.
Facilitate
Alumni facilitate many of the Fraternity’s leadership development programs and provide wisdom to undergraduate brothers.
Life Loyal Sigs
Life Loyal Sigs are part of a brotherhood of young and old alumni who continue to reap the benefits of Sigma Chi membership long after their college years are over. Life Loyal Sigs exemplify the prosperity, achievement, idealism and deep sense of personal responsibility that we all wish for ourselves and our families. A Life Loyal membership is the best way for members to take part in the enduring spirit and heritage of Sigma Chi.
Delta Phi Chapter recognizes the 176 brothers from its ranks who have chosen to be Life Loyal.
Alumni Awards
Sigma Chi Fraternity recognizes individuals and groups that work in service to the organization, its members and the communities to which Sigma Chis belong.

Induction into the Order of Constantine is considered to be the highest honor that the Sigma Chi Fraternity bestows upon one of its members. The honor of being named an Order of Constantine Sig has been conferred on just over 720 brothers since the Order’s inception at the 47th Grand Chapter in 1948.
