Fraternity History:
The Kappa Sigma Fraternity is the largest international fraternity with currently 316 active chapters and colonies in North America. In 2012, the fraternity pledged more men than any other fraternity in history. It was founded on December 10, 1869 at University of Virginia by founders William Grigsby McCormick, George Miles Arnold, John Covert Boyd, Edmund Law Rogers, and Frank Courtney Nicodemus. Together they are known as "The Five Friends and Brothers". The name is "Kappa Sigma Fraternity" as prescribed by Article I, Section I, of our Constitution. Usually the name is given as Kappa Sigma, and it is also proper to refer to the fraternity as Kappa Sig. The badge of Kappa Sigma is a five pointed star touching the outer rim of the crescent. The badge is a convex and bears the Greek letters shown above and certain symbols of our Fraternity. The colors are often used to adorn the badge through the use of rubies, pearls, and emeralds, set in the star points, outer rim of the Crescent and in the circle which encloses the Greek letters in the center of the Badge.
