GREEKS Sigma Phi Epsiion N brotherhood B Jennifer Sintler and Torn Yaniaueh Forming the Greek organization in 1981, the memhers of Sigma Phi Epsiion exemplified ■ ' building balance and leaders for tomorrows eommunilies by fundraising and forming strong bonds t)f brotherhood. A variety of activities were held to raise money for the chapter and for the community. Members went to Kansas City, Mo., and worked for Kemper Arena as ushers for basketball games or music concerts. One of the fundraisers was teeter- tottering for three consecutive days, non-stop. We did the teeler-totler, Kraig Robinette, .Sigma Phi Epsiion president, said. We did it for 72 hours and got donations of more than S300 at Homecoming 1995. One of the key notes during the weekly chapter meetings was discussions about Homecoming. Greek Weekend and how to make brotherhotid relationships strong for the new members. Brotherhood was kind of a new e.xperience, Robinette said. It was not like having a brother It was more of a feeling than a word. Some of the members went to Omaha. Neb.; Kansas City, Mo., and other places where the met with other Sigma Phi Epsiion chapters in attempt to learn more about other chapters. It was my role to communicate with other chapters of the national organization to know what other chapters did. Robinette said. Unification and friendship were key roles also. It (Sigma Phi Epsiion) gave students an op- portunily to get into something different from -g v hat they wanted to be in, James Herauf. ad- viser, said.

Making the much-needed changes to the house caused a noticeable increase in the mindset of many of the fraternity members. Fi. ing the house brought about a new attitude for change and for the future. Da e Wakien said. The Sig Taus traded Homecoming and othei activities for money-raising activities that wiiuki directly pay for the house ' s renovations. Waldeii said. We w orked at Kansas Cits Chiels and Royals games concession stands. Walden said. We had to be there at 8 a.m.. but it was still pretty fun to do. Aside from living the house. Sig Tau memhei s said Ihey enjoyed a brotherhood unique to small fraternities. 1 liked Sig Tau ' cause of the brotherhood. Lock said. It was a small fraternity and thai made us a lot closer than bigger fraternities. Fraternity members were also active in a phi- lanthropy with Bacchus, an organi aiion that promoted responsible drinking. Even this took a back seat to house remodel- ing, though. Intramural participation, however. S did not suffer and still took up a large part of fraternity members ' time. Wc were into flag football, basketball and weightlifling, Brad Meinecke said.
