Sigma Chi (ΣΧ) Sigma Chi (ΣΧ) is the largest and one of the oldest college Greek-letter secret and social fraternities in North America with 244 active chapters and more than 300,000 initiates. Sigma Chi was founded on June 28, 1855 at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio when members split from Delta Kappa Epsilon. Sigma Chi has seven founding members: Benjamin Piatt Runkle, Thomas Cowan Bell, William Lewis Lockwood, Isaac M. Jordan, Daniel William Cooper, Franklin Howard Scobey, and James Parks Caldwell. Sigma Chi is a part of the Miami Triad, along with Beta Theta Pi and Phi Delta Theta. The fraternity's official colors are blue and old gold, and its badge is a cross with emblems on each of its arms: crossed keys on the upper arm, an eagle's head on the left arm, seven gold stars and a pair of clasped hands on the lower arm, and a scroll on the right arm. In the center of the cross, on a black background, are the gold symbols for the Greek letters Sigma (Σ) and Chi (Χ). The left and right arms are connected. Sigma Chi's purpose is to promote the concepts of Friendship, Justice, and Learning; to build brotherhood and life-long membership among members from all walks of life. Its mission statement is to develop values-based leaders committed to the betterment of character, campus and community. Sigma Chi's vision statement is "to become the preeminent collegiate leadership development organization—aligned, focused and living our core values". "The Sweetheart of Sigma Chi" "When the world goes wrong as it's bound to do, And you've broken Dan Cupid's bow, And you long for the girl you used to love, The maid of the long ago; Why light your pipe, bid sorrow avaunt! Blow the smoke from the altar of dreams, And wreathe the face of your dream girl there, The love that is just what it seems. "The girl of my dreams is the sweetest girl of all the girls I know, Each sweet co-ed, like a rainbow trail, Fades in the afterglow. The blue of her eyes and the gold of her hair are a blend of the Western sky; And the moonlight beams on the girl of my dreams, She's the Sweetheart of Sigma Chi!"
