3 SIGMA CHI PRACTICING THE JORDAN STANDARD Epsilon Kappa Attains Excellence in Philanthropy T he brotherhood has reached new heights in our philanthropic endeavors, elected a new executive board, grown our Chapter membership, and outperformed in intramurals this past semester. Although we have had to navigate through new policy changes from both the University and the Fraternity, we have taken them well and will strive to leave the Chapter in a better place for the men who come after us. Members Raise $34,000 for Special Olympics This past fall, we held our annual Derby Days and reached a new record, raising $34,000 benefiting Special Olympics of Greater Memphis. The Chapter also initiated 18 new brothers from our fall 2017 pledge class and recruited four new pledges for our spring class. This is the first time the active Chapter has participated in a formal recruitment process in years. Epsilon Kappa Remains Leader on Campus We outperformed many organizations in intramurals this past semester. We took home the championship for indoor soccer and are on our way to our second consecutive basketball championship. One of our brothers, Matthew Mullins '19, went to the 2017 Tennessee Intercollegiate State Legislature competition in Nashville and presented a comprehensive bill on the opioid epidemic in Tennessee. Matthew won the Best Delegate award, which is given to the most outstanding sponsor of a piece of legislation from all of the schools in Tennessee. Thank You, Alumni We are very proud of our accomplishments that we have achieved this past semester and are looking forward to reaching new heights in everything that we do. The new executive board, as well as the Chapter is eager to surpass our philanthropic efforts for this next year, nail down our new recruitment process, and continue to win in intramurals. We encourage alumni to stop by the Chapter House and visit us at any time. We truly appreciate all that you do for us and the example you set for what it means to be a true Sigma Chi.
