   Welcome!

The Badge of Sigma ChiThank you for taking the time to visit the Kappa Rho of Sigma Chi website. American University’s chapter of Sigma Chi now dates back more than 10 years when a small group of men decided to form an organization to better themselves and the community around them.

Since the time of our founding we have grown to over forty brothers, many of whom come from different walks of life, have varying interests and participate in many different activities. It is our different temperaments, talents and convictions that make us strong.

If you are a parent, an alumnus, a member of the AU Community, or are looking to join a Fraternity at American, there is information on this site for you, so please take some time and check it out! 

Regards,
Chris Scott, Consul of KP
