Sigma Nu

Sigma NuSigma Nu, the honor fraternity, was founded in 1869 at Virginia Military Institute. For more than 110 years, the Delta Theta chapter at Knox has been a prominent leader in academics, sports and community service.

Sigma Nu’s mission continues today to develop ethical and honorable leaders of society through the development of the minds, hearts and characters of its members.

Notable Sigma Nus:

  • Bob Barker, past host of The Price is Right
  • Williams Daniels, actor
  • Harrison Ford, actor
  • Gerry L. Alexander, current Chief Justice of Washington State Supreme Court
  • Paul Tibbets, pilot of the Enola Gay

There is no stereotypical Sigma Nu. In past years, one quarter of the fraternity’s members were international students, and members represented nine countries. Brothers of Sigma Nu follow the first part of their organization's creed, "To believe in the life of love," and spread it to others.

Members can be seen around campus as members of the choir, cross country team, International Club, as part of a campaign to make Knox more democratic, and many other endeavors.
