About the chapter

What truly sets Alpha Sigma Phi, Phi Chapter apart from other organizations is its brotherhood. Found within the chapter is a strong devotion to the ideology of Alpha Sigma Phi and the characteristics of brotherhood. Each brother lives their life to the fullest while upholding the values of Alpha Sigma Phi and being the best brother he can be. From running the student body government to volunteering at the local Human Society, the brothers at Phi do it all. Not only are these some of the top-performing gentlemen at ISU, but these are some of the tightest-knit, yet outwardly friendly group of guys you will ever meet.

“Joining this brotherhood has been the most rewarding experience I have had. I have been able to grow many characteristics from leadership to brotherhood. We push our members to continue to grow throughout their time here and graduate the best men they can be.”

Cole Jennings, 2024-2025 Chapter President
