Alumni Recruitment Recommendations
Dear Brothers,
Greetings from the actives of the Omega chapter. Our names are Brian Bechler and Sebastian Caceres and we are Co-Recruitment Chairs for the 2020-2021 school year. We have been working hard on our recruitment plans for the upcoming school year, and we are looking to our alumni to help us seek out students who might make great members of Sigma Chi.
Please let us know if you have come across any incoming Northwestern students who may fit the requirements necessary to be a Sigma Chi. The Omega chapter is not looking for a single cookie cutter mold, but all different types of individuals that will contribute to a kind and talented group.
Please share with us the names, contact information and a brief description of any student who you feel may be a good fit for the Omega chapter using the recommendation form provided. We would be happy to contact them regarding our recruitment plans.
We are very grateful for any recommendations, and details on potential rushees that you can provide.
In hoc,
Brian Bechler ‘23 Sebastian Caceres ‘23
