On March 2, 1986 eight dedicated men known as the "Creators", founded Epsilon Sigma Rho Fraternity at California State University Sacramento. These men sought a strong brotherhood based
on diversity and a devotion to cultural awareness. Through developing a community support network, a strong bond amongst the
brothers and cultural awareness on the campus and community,
Epsilon Sigma Rho Fraternity, Inc. is the FIRST Multicultural fraternity in the NATION!
Epsilon Sigma Rho is a fraternity, like many others, dedicated to creating a fraternal bond amongst its brothers. What
separates us from other fraternities is that we pride ourselves on our diversity and our acceptance of cultural and ethnic
differences. Furthermore we take a step beyond merely being diverse. We feel that it is of great importance to understand
our brother's cultures and also understand the culture's of others as well. We actively strive to help others learn about
and appreciate the differences that make each of us unique. Epsilon Sigma Rho is an open-minded brotherhood. We accept everyone
for their race, color, religious beliefs, cultural traditions, and individual differences. Epsilon Sigma Rho is not just a
fraternity; we are a FAMILY with the same ideas but different upbringings and backgrounds. Our Differences
Are Our STRENGTH!

Goals
Epsilon Sigma Rho is in the process of achieving three basic goals. These goals are to:
1) Achieve higher academic success
2)Create a community outreach program
3)Build a network system within the fraternity
The attainment of higher academic success is obvious since we are all attending college.
The goal is more attainable through intra-fraternal tutoring, friendly counseling, and the wisdom of experience. This aim
is strongly supported by our brotherhood. Having brothers in a wide range of majors from the sciences to the arts, also helps
the goal of developing a support system. That is why our goal of higher academic merit is paramount.
Our second aim is to create a community outreach
program. This is done by volunteering our time and services towards helping those in the community who are in need.
The third is a long-term goal. The building of a network system takes time and dedication
but is achievable. Our alumni continually work to promote sharing and brotherhood. We all look to eachother to help increase
oppurtunities as brothers graduate and enter respective fields.
