All monies will be available only to Alpha Nu Chapter for scholarships and leadership programs. You can read more about the Sigma Chi Foundation and why this is such an important cause below. Alpha Nu Brings Home Awards I am also pleased to report that the Chapter attended the 2014 Balfour Leadership Training Workshop at Ball State University this summer and returned with another Peterson Significant Chapter Award and our second Gold Outstanding House Corporation Award. Recruitment Success Summer recruitment has resulted in another outstanding 50-man fall pledge class. The Chapter rose to third overall GPA last semester, which goes to show that scholarship is high on the list for each member. The Chapter will be well over 200+ members when the fall pledges are initiated in November.
