  • Sigma Phi Delta Builds a Foundation For Life

    Jason Renner, class of ’99, was the first in his family to go to college. He felt that being a “first generation college student” eased the pressure from his family to maintain certain grades or choose a specific career path. Ultimately, he decided to pursue engineering, and paid his own way through his time at Trine University, working about 20 hours per week.

    Renner joined Sigma Phi Delta after he became friends with a few brothers in his freshman year engineering class. Due to his family background, he didn’t have prior exposure to anything engineering related, and Sigma Phi Delta provided… Read More +

Alum Feels Double the Impact from Hurricane HarveyFrom Faustino Cisneros Jr. ’17 (Beta-Gamma Chapter, Lamar University)

Hurricane Harvey was a devastating experience for my family and me. It was our first experience with a flood of this magnitude. We had been through hurricanes before but not nearly as damaging as this one. At first, we did not pay much attention to it since in our past experiences hurricanes caused minimal damages and there was no need to evacuate. With Harvey, the day before it hit, water was already about six inches high and it had already covered our entire front and back yard.

Hurricane Harvey: A Family’s Life Devastated by WaterSigma Phi Delta brothers in Texas continue to be impacted by the devastation caused by Hurricane Harvey. Joseph “U/No” Jordan ’17 of Beta Gamma Chapter shares his heartbreaking story, including how his family was evacuated, how their personal belongings were destroyed, and how his wife’s family suffered not one but two deaths in the storm’s aftermath. He thanks his SPD brothers for coming to his family’s aid at a time they needed it most.

 

Storms Also Affected Brothers Miles AwayHurricanes Harvey and Irma also affected Peter Bekey '57 (Alpha Chapter)--even though he lives thousands of miles away in San Rafael, Calif. Peter owns a vacation home, which was heavily damaged by both storms, in the Atlantic.

Help Brothers Impacted by Recent HurricanesThere are numerous fundraising drives and relief efforts to help individuals and households affected by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma. But only one that will directly support Sigma Phi Delta brothers whose families and homes suffered devastating losses due to the storms.

Sigma Phi Delta International has established a Harvey and Irma Relief Fund to help brothers impacted by recent hurricanes. Your generosity could help brothers who have been personally affected.

Father of Four Engineers Thanks SPDRick Sidor ’83 (Alpha Chapter, USC) thinks there is something about Sigma Phi Delta that sets it apart from other fraternities. Now the father of two engineers and two aspiring ones, Rick’s passion for engineering must have always been evident, and college was no exception. So he was not looking to join just any fraternity.

“I wanted Greek life, but I was serious about my career choice in engineering,” says Rick. “I thought SPD would give me a good social and professional mix.”

Finding FamilyBeta Delta Chapter President Christian Wiskur '18 wrote a great article for incoming Hokies on the #ExperienceVTBlog. He shares how his fraternity became his family and inspired an unplanned yet unforgettable adventure.
