6 President Paul McIntyre '22 Naperville, Ill. Civil engineering - construction management Paul hopes to effectively navigate the changing Fraternity culture, starting with SigEp's transition to substance-free housing.

Outside of fraternity life, Paul is involved with intramu- ral teams and is an avid fan of the Fighting Illini basketball team. Vice President of Member Development Brian Federico '22 Grayslake, Ill.

Vice President of Programming Bob Sampson '22 Itasca, Ill Civil engineering Bob wants to make sure the mem- bers of the Fraternity maintain a strong Brotherhood and good relationships with sororities on campus. He has so- ber events in the works, including attending base- ball games, tailgates, bowling, and SESL, to name a few. Similarly, the brothers of Sigma Phi Epsilon look forward to the semi-formal events coming up later this semester and next spring. All the event planning the vice president of programming does allows the president to focus on the responsibil- ities of the chapter and less on strengthening the bond between brothers. Outside of SigEp, Bob is on the club volleyball team where he hopes to hold an executive role in the future. Chaplain Calvin McIntyre '22 Naperville, Ill.

Gabe went through recruitment for a business fraternity this semester as well.
