ince 1918, Oregon Alpha has been at the heart of Greek life at Oregon State. Our proud
history speaks for itself through high academic achievement and leadership within the
University. With more than 2,000 initiates, Oregon Alpha has positively influenced the
lives of our members, cultivating lasting friendships in the process. Many of our best college
memories can be traced back to our SigEp experience.
While many of our alumni have gone on to successful and distinguished careers in business,
engineering, science, medicine, law, technology, agriculture, education, and countless other
endeavors, the common bond of our brotherhood remains, along with our shared principles
and values. We trace the roots of our success to Dr. Ulysses Grant "U.G." Dubach '18 and his
assertion that SigEps be "uncommon men."
rough Sigma Phi Epsilon we not only learned the importance of virtue, diligence, and
brotherly love, but we acquired valuable skills, including leadership, communication,
organization, interpersonal relationships, teamwork, and, above all, character.
ese traits have been integral to our
personal success and helped make us

opportunity we have been presented with
as our chapter nears its 100th anniversary.
