THE
S
igma Phi Epsilon has been portraying our
virtuous characteristics during the 2017-18
school year. Coming off an exceptional summer
recruitment class, SigEp is rising to be a top-
tier Greek organization at FIU. Surrounded by
an ardent Executive Board, SigEp was one of
three organizations reinstated after the Greek
pause imposed by President Rosenberg. This
exemplifies the hard work and tenacity the
brothers have portrayed.
In addition, the members of SigEp are
enthusiastic to be involved on campus. Here are
just a few examples of what our great members
are doing!
• Matthew Beck '20 is studying political
science and international relations and
raised money and awareness for the South
Florida Wildlife Center by having a bake
sale located on campus.He was recently
awarded one of FIU's First Generation
Scholarships that Florida Nu alumni help
fund through the Red Door Classic, and
in April was elected to fill one of SGA's
two Housing SGC-MMC senator
positions.
• Manny Perez '19 is studying economics
and has been nominated as Mr. AmaXing,
which is also known as the Sweetheart
of the Alpha Xi Delta sorority on campus.
His philanthropic campaign raised
money and awareness for the Autism
Speaks Foundation.
• Cesar Santalo '20 is studying
organizational and communications, and
is a rising singer/song-writer who
performed at FIU's Uproar music festival.
• Eduardo Pelaez '19 is studying pre-law
and was one of the contestants that
participated in FIU's Mr. Roarthon
competition. His philanthropic campaign
raised money and awareness for the
Children's Miracle Network.
The Chapter nominated our newest Executive
Board, and we attended the Carlson Leadership
Academy leadership conference in Atlanta,
Georgia, learning specific areas of expertise
within SigEp. One area we are striving for
improvement is recruitment. Our goal is to
recruit 25 new members this semester. We will
use biweekly brotherhood events to welcome
potential new members into SigEp. If you have a
recommendation, please contact me at the e-mail
below. It's always a great day to be a Florida Nu.
Fraternally,
Mark Saavedra '18 (Miami, Fla.)
