Sigma Pi
Convocation
July 31 - August 4, 2002
Our chapter faired incredibly well at this year's biannual Sigma Pi
Convocation. This summer, the event was held at the Loews Hotel in
downtown Philadelphia. Brothers Chris Dostie, Jason Ray, Morgan Parris,
and Matt Valentine represented the chapter for the very sucessful week.
When it was all said and done with, Auburn's chapter had taken home one
individual award and six chapter awards, including the coveted Grand
Sage's Award.
Grand Sage's Award (Large Fraternity)
This award is often viewed as the most prestigious
award given at Convocation. Three of these awards are given to the
fraternities which maintain the best all-around operations. They go to
the best small, medium, and large fraternities. Performance is
evaluated in the following areas: scholarship, membership size and
ranking, membership recruitment, finances, efficiency, chapter
programming, service to the community, alumni relations, leadership on
campus, image, and overall ranking on campus.
Grand Council Award
This award is presented every two years to the top
ten Sigma Pi chapters in the world. The top ten chapters are determined
using the same standards as those used for the Grand Sage's Award.
Chapter Scholarship Award
This award is presented every two years to the
chapters maintaining the best GPAs within Sigma Pi. It is one of many
ways that Sigma Pi encourages its members to strive for academic
excellence.
Efficiency Award
This award is presented annually and recognizes
chapters for the timely submission of reports and fees to the Executive
Office. The top ten chapters are recognized.
Membership Recruitment Award
This award recognizes the chapters who recruited,
pledged, and initiated the most men. Again, the top ten chapters of
Sigma Pi are recognized.
Membership Award
This award is presented to the top ten chapters
registering the most members in a fiscal year.
Cletus A. Broecker Award
Chris Dostie was awarded this individual
achievement award for his outstanding leadership on campus. It was
created in honor of Cletus Broecker's commitment to helping others.
