| − | '''Sigma Nu''' is so hot right now. So hot right now, '''Sigma Nu'''. Sigma Nu (ΣΝ), the honor fraternity, was founded in 1869 at Virginia Military Institute. For 120 years, the Delta Theta chapter at Knox has been a prominent leader in academics, sports, and community service. Today, Sigma Nu’s mission continues to be to develop ethical and honorable leaders of society through the development of the minds, hearts and characters of its members.

| + | '''Sigma 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, community service. Today, Sigma Nu’s mission continues to develop ethical and honorable leaders of society through the development of the minds, hearts and characters of its members. |

| − | The second oldest chapter of a fraternity at Knox College after Beta Theta Pi (1855), Sigma Nu was originally founded as Delta Theta, a local fraternity at nearby Lombard College in 1867. In 1891, Delta Theta became affiliated with the national fraternity Sigma Nu. The chapter was allowed to keep Delta Theta as its chapter designation despite it being out of sequence with the other national chapters, one of only two Sigma Nu chapters allowed to do so. When Lombard College closed in 1930 and students transferred to Knox, Delta Theta moved to Knox as well, and has been active at Knox ever since. Delta Theta has been continuously active since 1867––two years before the founding of the Sigma Nu national organization in 1869. The longest continuously running chapter of a fraternity at Knox (as Beta was inactive for a number of years), Delta Theta is also the oldest continuously running chapter of Sigma Nu in the world. | + | The oldest chapter of a fraternity on the Knox College campus, Sigma Nu was originally founded as Delta Theta, a local fraternity at nearby Lombard College in 1861. In 1891, Delta Theta became affiliated with the national Sigma Nu Fraternity. The Chapter was allowed to keep Delta Theta as its chapter designation even though it is out of sequence with the other national chapters. It is only one of two Sigma Nu chapters allowed to do this. |

| | + | Sigma Nu, as any of its members will tell you, does not fit the traditional Fraternity stereotypes, like jocks whose primary focus is getting people drunk. If you've ever been to Sigma Nu, you'll know that you're far more likely to find the brothers playing [[Wii]] on their 46 inch TV than doing [[keg stands]] or [[power hours]]. |
| | | | |
| − | Loved by some, tolerated by others.
| + | Sigma Nu is known as the [[geek|geekiest]] fraternity on campus. Rather than be dismayed by their reputation, some Sigma Nus often revel in it--a proposed slogan for this year's recruitment was "Sigma Nu-We take the "R" out of "Greek." |
| | | | |
| − | Known to Larp on Campus, instigate great heckling, adorable hijinks, and fantastic group dances.
| + | Many Sigma Nus came to Knox decidedly anti-Greek and never considered joining a fraternity, until they discovered Snu. This has led to a diverse and open minded group of guys. Though Sigma Nu doesn't fit the traditional frat stereotypes, it seems to get a new stereotype of its own every five years or so. |
| | | | |
| − | Due to their general lack of controversy and acceptance of trans and gender-nonconforming individuals, they are sometimes seen as a "fake frat."
| + | *Since their 2000-01 pledge class, Sigma Nu has largely been known as the [[LARP|LARPer]] frat, or [[Gaming Information Network|"gamer"]] frat. At present (2007), the latter is more accurate, as very few brothers take part in the Vampire [[LARP]] anymore, but lots of brothers play too many video games. There is also a large contingent of tree-hugging [[hippy|hippie]] types in the house as of 2007. Oddly enough, they get the best grades in Sigma Nu... |
| | | | |
| − | Always expect greatness. You will receive it.
| + | *For many years prior to 2000-01, Sigma Nu was known as the international fraternity. At one point, more than half of the actives were international students - geeky international students. |
| | | | |
| − | == Chapter House ==
| + | *During the mid-nineties, before Snu was the international frat, it was the [[Eric Langston|gay]] frat, otherwise known as the [[Eric Langston|"pink"]] frat. This reputation stuck around long after it was warranted, especially among the other fraternities because of rampant homophobia. |
| | | | |
| − | The Sigma Nu chapter house (or ''''SNouse'''') is located at 556 S. West Street across from the [[Quad]] loading dock. It is the smallest chapter house of any fraternity at Knox by square footage, and has the lowest housing capacity of all fraternity houses at Knox, housing 11 brothers.
| + | *Long, long before that, Sigma Nu was populated by Veterans returning from World War II. They were a bit of an "old fashioned" bunch and didn't approve of all those gays and foreigners that eventually took over their fraternity, but it seems like they got over it. |
| | | | |
| − | The Sigma Nu house may be scrappy, but the brothers have put a lot of work into it (no, really, they're working on it all the time). It's full of pleasant surprises, and is considered by many to be the most unique of the fraternity houses. Some views of the house are presented on this page. It is unknown how SNu will get a new house, only that it will be epic.
| + | Sigma Nu Delta Theta also has a reputation of academic excellence (what else would you expect from a bunch of geeks?), and consistently has one of the two highest Chapter grade point averages among fraternities at Knox. |

| | | | |
| − | ===Special Rooms in the House===
| + | The constituent members of Sigma Nu tend not to drink as often as members of [[TKE]], and are less frequently varsity athletes than members of [[Beta]]. In fact, right now they have one varsity athlete, and he's a golfer, so that might not even count. |
| | | | |
| − | The [[Based Room]] (or if you prefer, Debased Room)
| + | Some people describe Sigma Nu as a cross between the Deltas from the movie ''Animal House'' and the Lambdas of the movie ''Revenge of the Nerds'' due to their odd mixture of huge geeks and hardcore partiers. |
| | | | |
| − | The [[Terrordome]] - Lost in the the Great Renovation of '16 in exchange for a very nice bathroom.
| + | Sigma Nu is also closely associated with the [[Knox Democrats]], who hold their meetings in the fraternity house. The two groups also collaborated for the one-time Revolution party (a huge success). The house is also the site of the new [[Knox Democrats Anti-Global Warming Orchard]]. |

| | | | |
| − | The [[Rude Room]]
| + | A notable feature of the chapter house is its unique and somewhat impromptu Hookah Room. Resting precariously above the front deck, the Hookah Room is the house's most famous feature, consisting of a small room filled with couches, giant bean-bags and cushions, and various smoking supplies. Flags from the countries of its international students decorate the walls, and provide a much better view than the back end of the Quads. It is also the current lair of the giant, double-bowled, four-hosed [[Snookah]], ''''El Diablo Verde.'''' |

As a result, there are typically fewer "unofficial" parties at Sigma Nu. On weekends when there is not a registered party, Sigma Nus will often be seen at other parties around campus, including those of other fraternities. |
| | | | |
| − | At registered parties there is often dancing, but the dance floor is seldom packed for the entire party, save for Tunak at midnight - at which point, prepared to get uncomfortably sweaty. The glasses of a Sigma Nu have been known to have accidentally been broken during many a Tunak. Exceptions occur--the 80s dance party of [[2005-06]] and the "James Bond Party" on April 20, 2007 are prime examples of this.
| + | Sigma Nus have never really understood the appeal of having a bunch of people they don't know come to their parties just for free [[beer]]. They don't mind when it happens - they just don't get it. As a result, Snu parties are typically smaller, more personal affairs than those of other fraternities, and consist mainly of closer friends of the house. |
| | | | |
| − | Parties throughout the year include "[[Sunrise]]" and "[[Sunset]]" at the beginning and end of the year respectively (formerly "Tequila Sunrise" and "-Sunset"), "[[Sigma boo|Sigma Boo]]", a Halloween party, a Valentine's Day party, and many others. Themes in recent years have included "No Sex," "Party With A Heart On," "[[Silly Hats]]," "Snowpocalypse," "Soviet Snunion," "Frat Party," "Teresa Amott Installation After-Party," "Sigma, Like, Whatever," "Post-Meta Party,", [[Government Shutdown Party]],

| − | Sigma Nu wants to make sure that people feel comfortable at their parties. Communication is key - if something's up, get hold of someone you identify as a SNu! Jerks will be banished from the party. Being a meanie is not tolerated. You can also ask a SNu for a walk home if you feel unsafe. | + | Since Sigma Nu parties are more than just an excuse to get hammered, booty dance, and get laid, women generally feel secure that they will not be sexually harassed at a Snu party. |

| − | At some point during a Snu party, now typically at midnight, all members will come to the dance floor to do a ridiculous dance to the equally ridiculous song, "Tunak Tunak Tun," by Daler Mehndi. Thanks go out to Brother Akshat Agarwal for introducing to the chapter another means of making completed arses out of ourselves. Though many have attempted to translate the text, we still don't know what we're dancing to...or even why. | + | At some point during a Snu party, all members will come to the dance floor to do a ridiculous dance to the equally ridiculous song, ''Tunak Tunak Tun'', by Daler Mehndi.

| | | | |
| − | On [[Flunk Day 2010]] the Sigma Nus (and assorted guests) attempted their typical Tunak in the street, however, six or more Campus Safety officers approached, so the ritual was moved to the front lawn. [[John Perleberg]] gracefully handled the "situation" and the party continued.
| + | As of February 2007, "Tunak" has taken on additional importance to some gamers of Sigma Nu, as it is the signature dance of the Draenei male from World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade. |
| | | | |
| − | On [[Flunk Day 2010]] the Sigma Nus attained roughly 4-5 (that they admit to) campus safety reports, making it truly one epic Flunk Day!!!
| + | ===Sigma Nu:The Band=== |
| | + | Sigma Nu performed Tenacious D's "Explosivo" at the [[Greek Week No-Talent Show]] in 2007. The band included acoustic and electric guitars, bass, and [[Guitar Hero]] controller. |
| | | | |
| − | On [[Flunk Day 2013]] SNu succeeded in dancing "Tunak" three full times on South West Street, at various times in the day, without earning a Campus Safety report (at least not for Tunaking). Campus Safety Director [[John Schlaf]] referred to the third dance as "almost impressive" and gently reminded SNu not to do that anymore.
| + | == Inter-fraternity Beef == |
| − | | |
| − | In spring 2014, the first ever "sitting Tunak" was performed in the [[Sun Room]]. Like other Tunak dances, it was pretty silly.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Due to a combination of unseasonably hot weather and the achievement of maximum dance floor capacity, the Tunak of SUNRISE 2014 went down in history as the wettest Tunak ever undertaken.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Tunak has since been exported to a number of other locations on campus, usually when 3 or more SNu's get together in one place; music is not required. On rare occasions, Tunak also reaches locations beyond the Knox College campus.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Sometime during 2013-2014 school year, Tunak came full circle (so to speak), as Brother Joe Seidman performed a Tunak with several locals during his internship in India. He received many compliments on his Tunaking skills.
| |
| | | | |
| − | During winter break 2014, a vacationing Carly Taylor met with [[Emily Passarelli]], several other members of Marine Bio's 2014 research trip, and some random strangers to perform the first documented Belizean Tunak.
| + | Sigma Nu doesn't have any beef or rivalry with any of the other fraternities. This is due to the fact that Snus are generally a pretty innocuous group of nice guys that don't start shit. Snu's only hit the Start button. |
| | | | |
| − | Brothers also Tunak on the front lawn to celebrate special occasions such as the activation of their newest brothers, which is often heartily disapproved of by the Yik Yak community. Brothers also celebrate their senior-year birthdays with "the Twenty-Twonak," a normal Tunak in the house's front room immediately followed by dancing (poorly) to Taylor Swift's "22."

| | | | |
| − | ===Sigma Nu: The Band===
| |
| − | Sigma Nu performed Tenacious D's "Explosivo" at the [[Greek Week No-Talent Show]] in 2007. The band included [[Mike Hahn]] on acoustic guitar, [[Alex Enyart]] on electric, [[Rohel Terrazas]] on bass, and [[David Nolan]] playing a [[Guitar Hero]] controller.
| |

| |
| − | There was a revival of the Sigma Nu band during the 2011 [[Greek Week No-Talent Show]], when [[Cody Ward]] melted the Greek system's face with a blistering Jazz Sax solo.

On July 4th, 2019, Sigma Nu and Sigma Chi held their first ever joint event, the Sigmapendence Day cookout. A good, wholesome time was had by all.
| + | As previously noted, Sigma Nus rarely are varsity athletes. Currently, they have a varsity golfer and a former varsity soccer player. They do, however, participate in Intramural Dodge Ball. They just make sure they take precautions to make them as numb to the sting of the ball as possible before hand. |
