Comment:  Sigma Chi is amazing. People criticize them for being aloof but that is because they are elite and exclusive (both in the best sense of the terms.) The boys there represent classiness to the highest extreme and that is something that should be praised, not condemned. They are role models of what fraternity men should be and how they should act like. They are the antithesis of the drunken slob stereotypes that you see on TV or in movies. I have researched Sigma Chi nationally and realized that the boys in all Sig chapters across the nation are husband material types. There is a reason for this positive conformity: it is called the Jordan Standard, which is unique among all 100 plus fraternities in the country. The Jordan Standard, named after one of their founders who became a Congressman, lays out minimum requirements for what Potential New Members must already possess in terms of quality moral attributes. It is the specific minimal membership requirements that make Sigma Chi unique. Two of those several standards are: a fair amount of ability (ie intelligence and work ethic) and high Ambition. Those two characteristics are what make Sigma Chi already elite from the start. No one fraternity in the country requires every single of its members to already have elite mor characteristics before even joining. Sigma Chi does. This is why Sigma Chi is different from other fraternities in the best possible way. Yes, the requirements are steep and not for everyone. The requirements are not for everyone and are intentionally designed to weed out the losers who make up the vast majority of the population. But if you have a winning attitude about life and the talent, intelligence and deep ambition to succeed in life, then Sigma Chi is where you belong. As a Theta myself (although writing under a pseudonym), I strongly think that Sig Chi should mix us much more. Kappa Alpha Theta chooses women with the same type of classiness, inner drive, and intelligence that Sigma Chi prides in their men. What do you say, gentlemen? Are you interested?
