Sigma Tau Gamma was founded in 1920 at
Central Missouri State University in Warrensburg, Missouri by
veterans of World War I. They were men of the American Middle Class,
working their way through school, determined to succeed. One hundred
thirty one chapters and 80,000 men later we still hold true to our
traditions; modern American men who want to get together and want to
get ahead. On December 6th of this year, the Alpha Phi Chapter will
be celebrating our 56th anniversary of being a chartered fraternity
at Southeast.
We were the first fraternity at
Southeast and have survived through good times and bad. The men of
Sigma Tau Gamma set out to create an exciting challenging atmosphere
within the Greek community that provides lifelong friendships, an
opportunity for good times, but without losing sight of our academic
endeavor. Just as intramural sports and social functions are a part
of our fraternity, so too are the study hours. As a new associate
and a member, you will always be responsible for your study hours
before any other fraternal obligations.
Sig Taus learn that each man contributes something different. We
learn to respect those differences and to respect each other as men.
As brothers, you will work together and play together, while
developing skills in leadership, democracy, and teamwork. Do not
make a decision you will regret. Dare to accept the challenge of
Sigma Tau Gamma.
