Sigma Phi Epsilon Fraternity
Meeting of the National Board of Directors
April 8 and 9, 2016
San Francisco, California
Substance-Free Housing
Foundation President Hammond provided a report from the North American Interfraternity Council’s (NIC) Alcohol Commission. The Board discussed the report and how substance-free policy would best be implemented and enforced.
National Director Kief moved the Board to mandate substance-free facilities at all newly chartered chapters moving forward. Seconded by National Director Cynthia Love. Motion passed by unanimous 12-0 vote.
Warren confirmed that discussions will continue and a suggested plan of action for fraternity-wide substance-free facilities adoption and budget implications will be presented at the fall meeting.

Seriously why do we need nationals (other than insurance)? This is a question for all chapters. Nationals is a franchise business. If your chapter is truly unique and stellar then what value does being attached to a "McDonald" franchise going to do for you when you are so much better? For SigEp admit it SigEp nationally has more junk chapters than good ones.

In August 2017, SigEp’s undergraduate legislative body took a historic step for our Fraternity. The undergraduates themselves voted and passed a resolution to effectively ban alcohol and other illicit substances from all SigEp chapter homes.
These are the kind role models we need in our greek community.

In all honesty, if the new alcohol ban was the sole reason a potential new member didn't want to join SigEp they likely wouldn't be a good fit for SigEp. Alcohol has become a central focus of fraternity life and we want to demonstrate clearly that SigEp's priorities lie with preparing our men to become confident, values based leaders.
