This is the Blackburn Heart. It used to be one of SigEp's official symbols a few years ago. When printed in color, it is always red. When not printed in color, it is printed gray, never black, to denote a feeling of warmth and brotherhood.





The top image is the original Founders Badge with rubies and garnets. When proposing the organization, it was discovered that a Sigma Phi fraternity already existed, so some research was done and Epsilon was added. The jeweler was ordered to stamp a gold E at the bottom of the 20 badges being produced.

The bottom image is the current badge with the shield surrounded by 20 pearls. If I'm not mistaken, only the Grand Chapter President is allowed to wear one with all diamonds. Forgive me if I'm wrong, though.



This the Sigma Phi Epsilon Coat of Arms. The Ducal Crown and the rays of light are the symbols on the Alumni Recognition Pin. On the left of the shield is the Star of Hope on a field of purple. The Sword of Virtue is on the right side of the shield on a field of red. At the bottom is a Greek Orthodox cross with the Lamp of Knowledge in the middle. The Escruscion Scroll (which I can't spell) is at the bottom with the words SIGMA PHI EPSILON in Greek.



This is The Balanced Man symbol. It is also the new member pin. The pattern around the edge represents the infinite continuum of learning which is broken at the top by the Fraternity letters. The Greek words say "Spirit Healthy, Body Healthy": thus the Sound Mind and Sound Body concept.



This is the SigEp Pledge Pin.

I can't think of anything else right now. If you have any questions, ask away!


This is the Sigma Phi Epsilon keynote. Everything in it has a Ritual meaning soooo.....
