Alpha Sigma Phi may be a new fraternity on the Missouri Western campus, but it is the tenth oldest fraternity in the nation.<\/p>\n
It was established in 1845 at Yale University, and is part of 140 campuses across the United States, Canada, and Scotland.<\/p>\n
Matt Weido, coordinator of expansion and growth for Alpha Sigma Phi, assisted students in establishing the fraternity on the Missouri Western campus this spring. He is excited about the expansion of the fraternity and encourages students to consider joining.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere are many reasons to join Alpha Sigma Phi,\u201d Weido said. \u201cWhether it\u2019s for networking, social, service, leadership, general involvement or the bragging rights of being a Founding Father, we make sure to provide collegians with endless opportunities.\u201d<\/p>\n
Two of the students inducted into the fraternity this spring were Chuck Mosley and Dylan Queen. Mosley and Queen became founding fathers of the fraternity and are committed to forming a fraternity unlike any other on campus.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere aren’t any preconceptions about who we are or what we do because we get to make this fraternity the way we want it to be,\u201d Mosley said.<\/p>\n
The five values of Alpha Sigma Phi are silence, charity, purity, honor and patriotism. The fraternity\u2019s goal is to help members become better men. Weido, Mosley and Queen encourage students to join the organization to build friendships and get involved in community service activities on campus.<\/p>\n
\u201cAside from the new bonds I have built with my fellow Alpha Sigs, joining the fraternity has given me the chance to embody the five values of Alpha Sigma Phi,\u201d Queen said.<\/p>\n
Mosely encourages students to join for a unique experience and a chance to meet new friends.<\/p>\n
\u201cI decided to join because it\u2019s a great opportunity to be apart of a Greek life organization that is unlike the others,\u201d Mosley said. \u201cIf you are thinking about joining a fraternity, just do it. It’s a great opportunity to get involved on campus and meet really great people.\u201d<\/p>\n
Once fully established, the men will be host community service, philanthropy opportunities and brotherhood events. They want to make sure to include everyone on campus from Greeks, to non-Greeks, faculty, staff and commuters.<\/p>\n
