I have never really been much for leadership positions in organizations, but being in Phi Sigma Pi has changed that. These are nice because they can be pretty informal and allow you to really get to know your fellow brothers. These can be anything from going out to dinner to watching Marvel movies to throwing a frisbee around when the weather is nice. First semester dues are around $235, but they go down to $105 a semester after your first semester. Our dues are significantly cheaper than other fraternities which is nice because college itself is not cheap. They are a really great way to take a break from the stress of college and hang out with some pretty chill people. We play sports like ultimate frisbee, basketball, flag football, soccer, corn hole and many brothers' personal favorite: inner tube waterpolo. Like many other organizations we participate in intramurals, which are basically sports against other organizations on campus. This is honestly one of my favorite things about Phi Sigma Pi. When you choose your big you are kind of adopted into one of five different families, and as more and more people join the fraternity the larger the families get. During the initiation process you get to choose a big from any of the eligible brothers. Just like with sororities and fraternities, Phi Sigma Pi also allows you to kind of form a little family within the fraternity. It seems like a lot of hard work at the beginning but it is actually a lot of fun and not too difficult. It also allows the initiates to bond as a class because they are required to plan a couple of events. The initiation process here at UNG is very unique because it gives the initiates a chance to really get to know the current brothers on a one-on-one basis through interviews. The more events you go to the more brothers you will meet and the higher chance you have of receiving a bid. They are pretty chill events and are meant to allow the potential new members to get to know some of the brothers. The Rush events range from service events like baking or cleaning up the parking deck to leadership building skills to sports like Human Fooseball.
After Rush is over, the current brothers will then vote on who they want to give bids to.

The way we do Rush at UNG is that the potential new members go to a variety of different events during a two week time period. Even if you all are not studying the same thing they can help to keep you accountable to make sure that you are studying. It's hard to go to the library, Hoag student center, or even Chow and not find another brother or a group of brothers studying. You can almost always find people to study with One of Phi Sigma Pi's ideals is scholarship, which is seen in the 3.0 GPA requirement needed to rush and must be maintained in order to stay an active brother.ĥ. We have brothers who are also in service and social fraternities. It is an honor fraternity, so you could also be a part of it and a part of a service fraternity. This means that if you wanted to you could be in both Phi Sigma Pi and a social sorority or fraternity. Phi Sigma Pi is non-Panhellenic, which means that it is not a social fraternity. This really comes in handy if you are struggling in a class and need help or need recommendations for which classes and professors to take. We have almost every major represented in the fraternity, everything from Business to Art to Criminal Justice to Science to anything else you could think of. If I had not rushed Phi Sigma Pi then I would have probably never met very many people outside of my major. I'm a business major, so all of my classes are in the basement of one building. It is not unusual to have a girl with a big who is a guy or a guy with a little who is a girl, and vice versa. Having both guys and girls in the fraternity makes it really unique because only one other fraternity on campus is gender-inclusive. It's gender-inclusiveīasically, this means that if you are a human being with at least a 3.0 GPA and have taken at least 12 credit hours then you can rush. If you need any more reasons on why you should consider rushing then keep reading. By joining Phi Sigma Pi, I have been able to meet so many different kinds of people, grow as a person and become more confident when it comes to speaking in front of crowds.
