The brothers of Sigma Nu, the Lambda Gamma chapter of Eastern Illinois University, wish to give you a warm welcome to our website.
Feel free to look around to get more familiarized with out fraternity and don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or just wish to get in touch with us.
Sigma Nu's past is a proud and colorful one. Founded by three cadets at the Virginia Military Institute in a period of civil strife known as the Reconstruction, Sigma Nu represented a radical departure from the times. The system of physical abuse and hazing of underclassmen at VMI led to James Frank Hopkins, Greenfield Quarles, and James McIlvaine Riley to form the "Legion of Honor" which soon became Sigma Nu Fraternity. So, amidst a backdrop of turmoil, North America's first "Honor" fraternity was established.
Our chapter at Eastern Illinois University was established on May 3, 1986 and for over 20 years now has produced quality men based on the principles of Love, Truth, and Honor. Sigma Nu is very active in the Greek Community at Eastern. We also have a very active network of Alumni that provide guidance and foster networking opportunites to the chapter and its members. Sigma Nu is always looking for men who want to grow in and contribute to our fraternity, if you are interested in experiencing Sigma Nu please contact our recruitment chairs on our contact page.
