Grand Senior President’s Welcome PDF Print E-mail
Richard T. RitterWelcome to alphasigmaphi.org!  This website is designed to help you learn more about our great fraternity, provide information on our leadership programs, and be a general resource to our members and visitors.

Founded at Yale in 1845 by Louis Manigault, Horace Spangler Weiser and Stephen Ormsby Rhea, Alpha Sigma Phi has grown into one of the premier national fraternities.  From the onset the organization has been committed to the awesome power for individual and social good that can be achieved when men of good character band together as brothers.

Far from the stereotype of fraternities in recent years, Alpha Sigma Phi provides its undergraduate men with character and leadership development programs that are second to none.  Each year the President’s Academy of Leadership offers our next generation of chapter officers and the alumni advisors who support their efforts a hands-on educational experience designed to enhance their strengths and support values based leadership.  Additionally the award winning Ralph F. Burns Leadership Institute offers an annual opportunity for our newest members to examine the values of the fraternity and challenges them to emulate the program’s namesake by living life in pursuit of our Purpose:

To Better the Man,
through the creation and perpetuation of Brotherhood
founded upon the virtues of character…

Silence, Purity, Charity, Honor, Patriotism

We hope you enjoy learning how Alpha Sigma Phi is building upon this noble calling while visiting this site.  You are also invited you to learn how you can contribute to the fraternity’s success by contacting our professional staff at Fraternity Headquarters.
