100th Anniversary

Come Celebrate With Us

The 100th anniversary of the Epsilon Eta chapter of Sigma Nu Fraternity is scheduled to take place this spring after being delayed a year. Our chapter of Sigma Nu Fraternity has been a tradition at the University of Tennessee since 1921 and continues to thrive upon the ideals of Love, Honor, and Truth as we have for a century. Over the past three of years, a group of alumni has been meeting via conference call to discuss the 100th Anniversary of the Epsilon Eta chapter. We are continuing to plan events in various cities at different times throughout the year to lead up to our weekend of celebrating together in Knoxville.

We want to invite all or our alumni, actives, families, and friends to save the date for our April 2022 celebration so you can join us in Knoxville.

100th Anniversary Endowment

The planning committee has created the Sigma Nu Legion of Honor Memorial Endowment to raise money for chapter scholarships and money for housing expenses. The past six years alumni have donated $66,000 to present twenty-two $3,000 scholarship to active brothers in the chapter. The scholarship ceremony has become an annual event with the chapter.

The chapter house was opened in March 2010. The house has been home to thirteen groups of brothers. Over the years, there has been a number of repairs needed on the house. As 1824 Fraternity Park Drive continues to be home to members of Epsilon Eta, we want to make sure that necessary expenses are covered for the house.
