Taayo "Hibernate" Simmonds

I'm a Halifax native in my 3rd year at Dal. My major is Poli Sci and I hope to
enter political service after I graduate. One thing that attracted me to Sigma
Chi is its emphasis on academics and community service. For instance last year
we raised $2,700 for the IWK Children's Hospital.

My biggest problem with my fellow brothers is that none of them can touch me in
NHL '07 or Madden '07. After I win I ALWAYS offer to teach them how to play or
I suggest that they practice more but they never listen. Rob and Jeremy are
probably the worst for this.

My name is Robert Hingley and I am going into my fourth year at Saint Mary's
University, where I am studying Accounting and Marketing. I joined Sigma
Chi in the fall semester 2004. During my years in the fraternity I have held positions of Annotator, Tribune, Trampathon Chair and this past year I
was the Consul. I also sit on the telethon operations committee for the IWK
on behalf of the fraternity. At Saint Marys I am a frosh facilitator. During
my years with the fraternity I have the chance to travel to Muncie Indiana
twice and to Boston, where myself and other brothers got to spend time on
Harvard, MIT and Boston College Universities. When I graduate I hope to
achieve my Chartered Accountancy.

Major: Accounting
I am looking to Major in Accounting. My Career goal is to work as a Highly respected accountant. The Reason why I joined Sigma Chi, It seemed to be a long story unlike some joining the fraternity for the "wrong reasons". I played sports my whole life, and one year in my hockey career, I had a coach by the name of Chad Conrad (Great Guy, Angry Hockey coach though). We stayed at the hockey rink one day and we just played around on the ice having fun and we got to talking, and he told me alot about the fraternity, and it dawned on me to have such a great connection with your hockey coach and just be able to talk freely to him about anything, got me wondering about the fraternity itself and I belived the other brothers would be similar in away to apporach him and easy going, and I gave it a shot, cause you never know until you do it. And at the end of the story I became a brother and I feel the experience has changed my life for the better. I've mad strong bonds between brothers/guys I would never of gave a second chance to if not for the fraternity.

I go to Saint Mary's University, began my studies in 2003 and am graduating in 2008. I'm taking International Development Studies, completing my degree with honours this year. I'm a member of the IDS Society. After school I would like to begin work with a non-governmental organisation in South Africa or Latin America.

Why I joined Sigma Chi: The partnerships and the friendships that I
witnessed between brothers initially attracted me to the fraternity. Before
I even became a member, I was already being treated like a friend, respected
and understood. Friendship on such scale was something I had hitherto not
been exposed to, and Sigma Chi has delivered on so many other bases soon
after I became a brother. Since, I've been doing my part to give my share
back to the fraternity, in part to create a great atmosphere for new
brothers and in part to see our chapter continue to be successful.

I joined the fraternity for all the wrong reasons. I wanted to party and meet
lots of girls. I wanted to travel across North America and be able to stay at a
chapter house for free. While I did get all of that there are other aspects I
feel have been much more valuable. Since joining I have gained a new confidence
and deep sense of personal responsiblity. I feel more comfortable in a
leadership role and have life long friends as a result. I will forever owe
Sigma Chi.

After graduation, I would like to persue a career in Law or some sort of Law
Enforcement or corrections.

I joined the fraternity because it offered everything I was looking for from the
university experience, and is still continuing to live up to those
expectations. I saw it as a great way to make some great friends, and life long
bonds. As well as an outlet for me, to let go of my old self and define a new
me, and would allow me to live up to my full potential.

I've decided to join the fraternity after becoming good friends with some of the guys and discovering what Sigma Chi has to offer as an organization. There's a lot more to it than one might think. The longer you're in, the more you discover.

I initially joined the fraternity because I was living in the house at the time and heard about all the great experiences my roommates were having.  I also liked the idea of being able to do charity work with an organization of my peers.  Since, I have realized that Sigma Chi is much more than my initial expectations and I cannot begin to describe what it has meant to my university life.  The brothers, events and atmosphere in the house have made me a strong believer in the ideals of Sigma Chi.
