Sigma Phi Epsilon Brother Matthew Baird WPI

Matthew Baird WPI attended Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Worcester, MA. While studying there, Matthew Baird WPI became a brother in a fraternity – the Sigma Phi Epsilon Fraternity. Sigma Phi Epsilon (often shortened to just SigEp) was founded in 1901, more than a century before Matthew Baird WPI would join at WPI. Matthew Baird WPI is one of over 300,000 lifetime brothers who have joined Sigma Phi Epsilon since it was founded, although there are about 15,000 current undergrad members.

When you read about Sigma Phi Epsilon’s Balanced Man Program, it isn’t hard to see why this fraternity was a good fit for Matthew Baird WPI. The Balanced Man Program sets SigEp apart from other fraternities, because it aims to help brothers become well-rounded students and adults – in terms of academics, leadership, professional development, and social skills. As a busy student athlete, volunteer, engineering student and future business professional, the Balanced Man Program at Sigma Phi Epsilon would have been a great program to help Matthew Baird WPI to succeed in all aspects of his life.

Sigma Phi Epsilon isn’t one of those fraternities that focuses on boozing and hazing. Matthew Baird WPI is glad to know that the network of Sigma Phi Epsilon alumni is strong and connected, helping brothers to gain professional success and assistance when they need it. Some of Matthew Baird WPI’s most famous Sigma Phi Epsilon brothers include actor John Goodman, children’s author Theodor “Dr. Seuss” Geisel, two NASA astronauts, Nobel Laureate (Economics) Kenneth J Arrow, and many high powered chairman and CEOs around the country. Matthew Baird WPI enjoyed his time as an undergraduate brother at Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity for many reasons, not least of which was the great friends that he made there. Fraternities are a great way to get involved and find a community on a big campus, and Matthew Baird WPI would recommend that all college freshmen at least consider joining a fraternity or sorority.
