About the chapter

In this pursuit, we focus on our 3 "S"s, which are guides for our members pursuing constant growth. We intend to grow in our Spiritual "S" by attending church services and/or Bible studies together, while loving and serving each other along the way. Our Scholastic "S" represents our focus on academics. We have many programs in place to help hold each other accountable and focus on success in the classroom and the workplace. Finally, our Social "S" is represented by our strong culture of love and brotherhood within the Chapter house. Guided by our Christian values, we promote a culture of respect and service to one another and to others in the community. With these 3 "S"s guiding our members, we push each other to become the best versions of ourselves through college and into life.

“I have so many different reasons to be thankful for Beta Sig, but 99% of them come down to the people I have met and bonded with here. From my freshman year roommates to my Bible study leaders to the house Chef, I have met so many amazing people who have pushed me to become who I am today. Everyone here is invested in each other and in Christ, and that's what drives this place.”

Hayden Moore, 2025 Chapter President
