J-ss ack SIGMA PI ALPHA A local social fraternity, Sigma Pi Alpha was founded in 1933 to pro- mote intellectual and social interests among its members and to provide for their development, both spiritually and physically, in an atmosphere of friend- ship and cooperation. lt was originally intended only for students of Polish extraction, however, since I947 membership has been opened to all students of the University. Currently, the fraternity is engaged in a vigorous reorganization prog- gram. From an inactive status in l959, Sigma Pi Alpha has striven since to regain the prominent place which it once held at Loyola. With a total active membership of twenty-three, Sigma Pi Alpha has in addition one of the largest and most active alumni associations in the Middle West. 1 l iz Alpha. .
