BROTHERHOODa doubt one of the best benefits of the Sigma Pi brotherhood is friendship. The fraterniry provides a place where strong friendships are forged through common goals and activites; friendships that last long after college. The word to describe this lifelong bond is "brotherhood". A brothehood is based on shared principals, mutual respect, and common goals. Being part of a fraternity is something that cannot be compared to anything else. Those who have not experienced it will never understand it, and many of those who have, can't explain it.

ROAD TRIPSThere is no better way to get to know your brothers than to kick back and get awayfrom school on a road trip! Whether it is going to visit someone's hometown, the beach, Mardi Gras or an away football game, our brothers are always going somewhere new and adventurous.

OUTDOORSWhether it's hunting, fishing, boating, hiking, climbing, or just camping out, thebrothers of Sigma Pi are always up for adventure. There is no better way to recover from studying than to spend time outdoors and experience all the adventures avaliable in the Auburn area. You are sure to find brothers who have expertise in outdoor activities you enjoy, and will gladly share their experience with you.

Pi is a social organization, so naturally one of the greatest benefits of brotherhood is the social opportunities. Our social calendar includes formals, tailgates, date nights, band parties, and socials with other fraternities and sororities. In the Spring, our house is turned into a tropical paradise for our annual week-long island celebration, Luau. Football season brings tailgates on the lawn with brothers, dates, and alumni. Band parties include Night in New Orleans, Halloween Party, Christmas Cocktail, Redneck Riviera, and the Rave. Our formal, the Orchid Ball, is the highlight of our social schedule, held each year in New Orleans.

86 years, Sigma Pi has been serving our university and community through various leadership roles. From SGA Presidents to Camp War Eagle Counselors, Sigma Pi Brothers are truly the leaders of tomorrow. Our chapter is active in Auburn's Student Government Association. Brothers serve in both SGA Senate & Cabinet as well as in Tiger Tuesdays. Sigma Pi brothers also give back through groups like Alternative Student Breaks, which provides Auburn students with opportunities to travel the world while lending a hand. Our chapter is strongly committed to improving Auburn every day through servant leadership.

GREEK LIFEAcademics: One of the primary purposes of the fraternity system is to encourage anddevelop high scholastic achievement among its members. The average GPA of fraternity men has long been better that that of non-Greek men at Auburn University. Sigma Pi has GPA requirements that encourage members to excell academically so they can stay in the fraternity. Sigma Pi also has a brother tutoring service that helps develop strong study and testing skills.

Philanthropy: The concerns of aGreek man extend far beyond the confines of campus life. Community service and philanthropic activities are integral components of Sigma Pi at Auburn University. Our fraternity sponsors a multitude of activities each year to earn money and donate time to individual philanthropies. The spirit of reaching out to help others in the community unites us and helps build moral character through the realization of the needs of people less fortunate. Brothers volunteer at Sigma Pi's ACE Project.

Athletics:

Sigma Pi is actively involved in intramural sports at Auburn University. Fraternities have such strong participation in the intramural program at Auburn that the university has set up fraternity leagues so that chapters are able to compete against each other in the spirit of Greek fun. Sigma Pi brothers are also a part of five different Auburn University club sports teams. Be it lacrosse, water skiing, or ice hockey, our brothers are proud to wear the Auburn uniform.

PLEDGINGPledging Sigma Pi offers a great experience into becoming an active brother in ourfraternity. Pledge semester is the time when lifelong bonds are formed with your new brothers. We have a well designed pledge program aimed at educating and enlightening new members of the traditions and history of our Chapter. Becoming a pledge gives new students a great opportunity to meet other members of Auburn's Greek community. The brothers plan themed swaps with each sorority's newest pledge class to allow a social experience with their own age group and introduce them to Auburn's fraternities and sororities. New members also participate in intramural pledge football, competing against other fraternities. Academic success is always important for a first year college student. Sigma Pi pledges have study hours at the library enforced by the Brotherhood Scholarship Chairman. Our new members also have access to the brother tutoring service.

Cost?Brotherhood dues include: fees, social events, and meals at the house. Lunch & Dinner, Monday through Friday

AUBURN TIGER FOOTBALLpart of the year for our brotherhood. From tailgates on the lawn to rolling Toomer's after a big win, the Auburn gameday experience is hard to beat. Gamedays typically start with tailgates at the Sigma Pi House with brothers, dates, and alumni. As kickoff approaches, brothers find their way to the stadium. Brothers enjoy some of the best seats in the entire stadium. Sigma Pi has premium seating in JordanHare Stadium's block student section because of our excellent standing in the SGA Spirit rankings. After the game, brothers will probably be seen at Toomer's Corner, celebrating another Auburn Tiger victory. Brothers also travel to see our Tigers play, visiting nearby Athens, Tuscaloosa, and Baton Rouge regularly.

Football season is the most exciting

Sigma Pi offers a unique living experience. As the largest house on Old Row we canoffer more than most fraternities. We have 30 single occupied rooms in the house. The living arrangements are suite style, allowing two brothers to share a bathroom. Living in the house is a great way to become an active part of the brotherhood as well as a great place to study or relax with other brothers. In additon to living areas, our house features both basketball and volleyball courts.

BROTHERHOOD ANNEXAfter a brother leaves Auburn, one may think that fraternity life has come to an end. Brotherhood is for a lifetime, and you will always remember the great times with your brothers. Our alumni have always made generous contributions to our chapter. Much of the generosity is behind the scenes with the functionality of the house, but every house is in constant need of updating. Being that our house is 25 years old, it is time for a little sprucing up. The Alumni have been working hard designing a two stage renovation project that is to take place in the near future. First on the list is a brotherhood annex, or party barn, that is to be completed by next summer! We are very excited about the construction and we have no doubt it will be the premier venue for any social event in Auburn!
