The biggest brotherhood on campus. A group which man hopes to be apart of and where being a little sissy boy is not tolerated. Their unity and strength are the tightest on campus. They have the biggest baddest ego's on campus and all the girls want them. Greek life on UF's campus wouldn't be the same if this organization didn't exist. We are the men of alpha sig who the fuck are you!

Get the Alpha Sigma Phi mug.The Ladies of Tri Sigma, or Sigma Sigma Sigma sorority, are simply the best. They rock the purple and white, and are by far the most fun sorority. Rumors of Sigmas being "sluts" were started by some very jealous Alpha Sigma Alphas. Tri Sigma produces gorgeous, intelligent, charismatic, and spunky girls all across the nation. Tri Sigma, or DON'T TRY AT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!
ASA 1: Let's get that girl to rush Alpha Sigma Alpha!
ASA 2: She's way too good for us, she'll definitely make Tri Sigma.

Get the Gamma Sigma mug.Sigma Chi (ΣΧ) is one of the largest and oldest all-male, college, Greek-letter social fraternities. Sigma Chi was founded on June 28, 1855 at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio when members split from Delta Kappa Epsilon. Sigma Chi has seven founding members: Benjamin Piatt Runkle, Thomas Cowan Bell, William Lewis Lockwood, Isaac M. Jordan, Daniel William Cooper, Franklin Howard Scobey, and James Parks Caldwell. Sigma Chi is a part of the Miami Triad, along with Beta Theta Pi and Phi Delta Theta.
The fraternity's official colors are blue and old gold, and its badge is a white cross with emblems on each of its arms: crossed keys on the upper arm, an eagle's head on the right arm, seven gold stars and a pair of clasped hands on the lower arm, and a scroll on the left arm. In the center of the cross, on a black background, are the gold symbols for the Greek letters Sigma (Σ) and Chi (Χ). The left and right arms are connected to the upper arm by gold chains.
Sigma Chi's purpose is to promote the concepts of Friendship, Justice, and Learning; its mission statement is to develop values-based leaders committed to the betterment of character, campus and community. Sigma Chi's vision statement is "to become the preeminent collegiate leadership development organization—aligned, focused and living our core values".
On June 13, 2005, Sigma Chi was the first Greek-letter society to be honored by the United States Congress for the fraternity's 150th anniversary.1

Get the Sigma Chi mug.STIGYA is a rare and sadly fatal disease. STIGYA, also known as (Sanpilogrino-Terminobofa-Insideya-Galact-Yamums-Asintitis) is an untreatable condition in which the victim experiences rapid loss of their bodily functions. This occurs when an unknowing victim comes in contact with a "raging xbox kid" whereupon they are either told to "stigya finger up your ass" or have been told the "n-word" (Neurological-Wigga-Onyalitis-Ramya-Dickinthere" ).
