Sigma Phi Epsilon - Colorado State University

COLORADO STATE UNIVERSITY, SIGMA PHI EPSILON CURRENT NEWS WWW.CSUSIGEP.ORG I n 2005, through the hard work and diligent efforts of Colorado Gamma alumni, a long-range renovation plan was developed. Steady progress has been made over the past ten years—professionals were contracted to produce operational plans, A&E, cost estimates and today we still have $385,000 in reserves. In 2012, the Red Door House Corporation established a campaign committee with representation from each era of alumni. With your help, a vitally needed restoration of 121 East Lake Street can be completed in time for our 100th anniversary at CSU. 2014 has been a year of many changes and difficult decisions for Colorado Gamma. Since the loss of Colorado Gamma's formal recognition at CSU, chapter alumni, CSU staff, and Sigma Phi Epsilon headquarters have worked together to develop a recolonization plan and have begun implementing the necessary steps to ensure a vibrant future for Colorado Gamma at Colorado State University. With our renewed vision for the future and a focus on Sigma Phi Epsilon ideals and values, it is with great pride and enthusiasm that we formally announce the Honoring Our Past, Inspiring Our Future campaign. More than just a capital campaign to provide sorely needed improvements to 121 East Lake Street, it is the capstone to effectively restoring Sigma Phi Epsilon to its former place of prominence on the CSU campus—and will sustain its future for decades to come. This important work must begin as soon as possible. The new Colorado Gamma chapter house promises to not only make 121 East Lake Street a place all alumni, future actives, and parents to be proud of, but it will also be a model for Greek life in the 21st century and one that has a focus on a Balanced Man mentality—with sound mind and sound body. The new Colorado Gamma chapter will be a chapter of pride, honor, and true brotherhood—and this capital campaign will sustain our chapter for decades to come. All Colorado Gammas have a shared ownership in 121 East Lake Street. With that ownership comes pride and financial responsibility. Pride and principles aside, now is the time for all Colorado Gammas to pledge their support. We have quietly and steadily developed commitments of over $929,500, but our campaign goal of $1.25 million is not assured without everyone's participation. We hope you will join our growing list of supporters who want to ensure the lasting impact of the Colorado Gamma experience at Colorado State University.
