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 the 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.

The San Diego Sigma Chi Alumni Chapter is flourishing.  Our membership continues to grow and the chapter continues to bring more activities and benefits to Sigma Chi alumni living in America’s finest city.

Our 2008 Significant Sig Awards Banquet was a huge success.    We proudly honored our two most recent Significant Sig recipients - Ed Blessing (Delta Xi, 1957) and Andreas Brown (Delta Xi, 1953).  Special thanks goes to Anthony Bernal (Kappa Sigma, 2002), Chairman of the Awards Banquet Committee and Bob Ottilie (Alpha Omega, 1977) for his role as Master of Ceremonies.  Almost one hundred brothers from a multitude of different chapters attended.

Additionally, we recently gave our alumni chapter website a minor facelift – stop by and take a look at www.sandiegosigmachi.org.  Our site is an instrumental tool in increasing our membership and keeping our members informed of our upcoming events along with our past accomplishments.

No matter if you’re a long time resident, new to San Diego or just visiting; the San Diego Sigma Chi Alumni Chapter has something for you.  Join us today and don’t miss out!

Brothers,

As we close the books to 2007 and look into the future of the 2008 year I would like to take this opportunity to express a couple of words as your new San Diego Sigma Chi Alumni President. In 2007 we accomplished many of our strategic goals as an Alumni Chapter of the Sigma Chi Fraternity. We increased our dues paying membership from 122 in 2006 to 176 in 2007. We had a very successful San Diego Sigma Chi Alumni Ritual Chapter meeting that included brothers that graduated over 50 years ago to recent 2007 graduates from Universities all over the Nation. In June of 2007 we held an awards dinner banquet to recognize brothers Gerald S. Davee and Joseph A. Mize on their distinguished honor of receiving the Significant Sig Award. In addition, we held regular monthly events and many special events throughout the 2007 year reflecting the true brotherhood of Sigma Chi.

Looking forward into 2008, I am extremely excited about the tasks at hand. Our predecessors of the Executive Board of the San Diego Sigma Chi Alumni Chapter have developed and maintained an exceptional model of a professional Alumni Chapter. Through the many years of existence in San Diego, the San Diego Sigma Chi Alumni Chapter has proven its integrity and persistence as a model Alumni Chapter. I pledge to you that we, the Executive Board of the San Diego Sigma Chi Alumni Chapter, look forward to growing our distinguished brotherhood.   

In hoc,
Scott Holtgrieve, Theta Mu '02
