The highlight of Sigma Nu ' s year was their move in November to their newly built house on Fraternity Row. The house took a year to build and houses 24 of Sigma Nu ' s 70 members. The brothers were able to conduct Rush out of the new house in the fall and had 22 men pledge the organization. Sigma Nu member Richard Ferranti said, We are just getting settled in the house and so next year we look forward to an even more successful Rush. During the fall, members held their annual Greek volleyball tournament which raised money for Cystic Fibrosis. Brothers collected money for their philanthropy through registration fees, street collecting and a huge party held after the event. Spring semester saw the fraternity win the President ' s Cup for intramurals in the Blue League. The brothers continued their winning streak by placing second in Greek Week Field Day and third in the Soap Box Derby competition. Also in the s pring, Sigma Nu held their fourth annual Wrestle-Off, a competition that involved Greeks and independents and raised money for Cystic Fibrosis. A strong tug-of-war team helped Sigma Nu place second in Greek Week Field Day. K.

Sigma Pi was the newest fraternity on campus, receiving its charter in the fall. At that time all pledges became brothers as well as founding fathers. Pledges did not have to go through initiation ceremonies since the fraternity had not established any customs. The fraternity which had only 45 was described by Bill Strick, historian, as being a small close happy group of friends. In the spring, the brothers moved into their house which was located off campus.

The men of Sigma Chi fraternity are from a diversified house with a close sharing a common belief in the ideals of Sigma Chi. There is a strong spirit in Sigma Chi in which the members try to live up to be gentlemen. Among the outstanding members at Chi were John Morrow, pole vaulter for the track team, and John Borelli, the chief justice of the traffic court. Sigma Chi also had several Inter-Fraternity Council members. Among the activities they participated in were the Meals on Wheels in cooperation with the Older Americans Council in which Sigma Chi brothers picked up two meals per week and delivered them to older people. They also sang in the children ' s ward at Shands Teaching Hospital and threw a Halloween party for the children. They sponsored the Derby Week for Boys and participated in the P hi Delt Slug Fest. Together with Zeta Tau Alpha sorority they helped with the Sunland Special Olympics. They also helped raise money for the Hippodrome and had a party from which proceeds went to the Hippodrome. Homecoming left Sigma Chi with the best Greek Float Award and Best Float Overall Award. Sigma Chi has won the Peterson Award for national fraternities 17 times. Sigma Chi brothers take a spare moment to discuss and study for upcoming exams because a pledge to fraternity life is also a pledge to scholarship.
