Sigma Chi Alumni Chapter launches Alumni Big Brother Program

We’re looking for local Sigma Chi alumni to take advantage of a unique opportunity to serve as Big Brothers for the undergraduate brothers at the Delta Xi chapter at San Diego State University and the Iota Chi Chapter at the University of California San Diego.

The San Diego Sigma Chi Alumni Chapter needs Alumni Big Brothers to provide support for one undergraduate brother. The key responsibilities would include:

• Maintain Regular Contact: Make contact each month with your little brother either by phone or in person.
• Provide encouragement: Provide support for your Little Brother’s active participation in the chapter and campus life. If they have concerns, or accept responsibilities and need help, you’ll be someone they can turn to.
• Participate with the Chapter: Participate in periodic chapter activities including a planned big brother group event.
• Help Set Standards & Goals: Stress our high standards. Some of the “old ways” must stay in the past. We all have great war stories, but we need to avoid glamorizing past practices that could sow the seeds of future trouble.

You’re more qualified than you think. It is not necessary to have the Norman Shield memorized, nor will you be quizzed. Additionally, you do not have to be an alumnus of one of these chapters. You just need to assist the undergraduates with the application of Sigma Chi teachings to everyday life and share with them what has made you successful and perhaps how Sigma Chi got you to where you are today.

Thank you in advance for your willingness to help these young men succeed in college and enter their chosen professions with a strong start.
