About Psi Sigma Phi

Mission

Psi Sigma Phi's fraternal goal is to establish a unique bond among men of different cultures. The anatomy of this bond is hard work, sacrifice and courage from all of its brothers-brothers who together strive to break social fears and ignorance. This fraternity will only open its arms to those who will continue this ideology.

Cause and Effect

Psi Sigma Phi's mission is not to increase membership; it is to open eyes; to broaden the views of men in our society. To create an opportunity for communities to feel at home in a racial and cultural utopia, a microcosm of a unified America.

Whether they are the cause or the effect, anytime the cultural divide has been breached in any facet, they are successful for their purpose is not to increase in size, but in influence.
