Make 2017 the Year of Kappa Sigma
It’s a new year, brothers, and we want you to join us in making 2017 the year of a thriving Kappa Sigma!
It’s all too easy to take for granted what Kappa Sigma brought to our lives, and it’s something we’ve all been guilty of. But this year we want you to remember what Kappa Sigma means to you, and why it’s so important not to lose touch with your brotherhood.
Here are some easy (and some brand new) ways to connect this year…

Robert Filo ’65- “I Am Still Living Those Glory Days”
“Career-wise, I commanded an on-orbit spacecraft while at NASA HQ in Washington, D.C. I spoke for 53 minutes to millions of viewers on C-SPAN in regard to space station planning, which was a television first.
My life’s mission is to enjoy gatherings of family and friends. I chose Kappa Sigma at Penn State after meeting other freshmen upon my first visit to campus. I am most proud of the lifelong friends and fellow Brothers. These friendships continue still, long after graduation.

What is your funniest memory from your Kappa Sig days?
“Selecting the funniest memory was the toughest, as there are so many, but the best is probably the ‘race.’ We had instituted a fine for any brother who damaged the “fraternal image.”
Alpha Delta Enjoys Prosperous Semester
The Alpha Delta Chapter has been having a great fall ’16 semester! The Chapter has been heavily focused on increasing philanthropy and community service efforts throughout the Greek, Penn State, and Sate College communities as well as maintaining ritual proficiency and brotherhood.
