Sigma Nu Fraternity was founded against hazing in 1869 at Virginia Military Institute. Nu chapters still continue to follow this policy, set by our founding members. Sigma Nu is also leading the national greek organizations with the ban on alcohol in chapter homes. The national media press over the past year has portrayed college fraternities with bad images. Granted, the events that have unfolded over the past year have been extreme, but please note, all college fraternities are not bad.
Greek organizations are responsible for many service projects for local communities.
My chapter joins up with other Sigma Nu Chapters throughout North Carolina to raise money for Pediatric Brain Tumor Research at Duke Medical Center. These are only two examples of the service projects in which many greek organizations participate in. This information should have been address in Ms. Vargas story. There is more to being a member of a college fraternity than drinking and partying. The media does not notice when fraternities do good, but they always know when fraternities do bad.
