The Benefits of Brotherhood
As you know, being a part of a fraternity offers more than just a social experience—as Brothers, we gained a sense of community, a place to call home, preparation for post-grad life, and the life-changing, lifelong benefits of friendship, leadership, and shared values. “Kappa Sigma takes young men and shapes them into functioning adults through […]

Remembering Denison Campus Traditions
If there’s one thing we’re certain about in 2020, it’s that everything is uncertain. Just ask any corporate advertisement ever (watch this video for a laugh).

Why Gamma-Xi?

If the years have all started to blur together, maybe this group photo from the 1963 yearbook will help you remember a little […]
