My Brothers,

 

It is both an honor and a privilege to serve as Consul of the Lambda Iota Chapter of Sigma Chi. From the moment I joined this chapter a few years ago, I have personally seen the tenacity, commitment, and morality that characterize our fraternity. I am honored to be in the leadership of a chapter that is still expanding and striving for greater excellence.

 

Leadership and service have influenced my Sigma Chi journey. Before I was elected Consul, I had the chance to serve as Annotator, Kustos, Magister, and Pro Consul. I learned significantly about leadership, responsibility, and our duty to one another as brothers from each role. These experiences have equipped me to lead our chapter with a distinct vision and a dedication to the principles upon which Sigma Chi was established.

 

Our chapter has made significant strides during the last year. Our brothers have continued to be committed to improving our overall chapter operations, leadership development, campus involvement, and academic success. We have continued to develop a chapter culture that is focused on responsibility, personal development, and brotherhood thru diligence and a common dedication to excellence.

 

Our chapter continues to prioritize member development, brotherhood, and recruiting outside of the classroom. We are dedicated to drawing in men who exemplify friendship, justice, and learning while giving them the chance to develop into leaders within Sigma Chi and the FIU community at large. In order to maintain the Lambda Iota Chapter's positive influence at Florida International University, our brothers are still actively seeking involvement in student leadership roles, campus groups, and charitable endeavors.

 

Our objectives remain ambitious as we look to the future. In order to better prepare our brothers for success after graduation, we want to keep growing our membership, fortifying our internal culture of responsibility, boosting alumni participation, and developing meaningful experiences. A good chapter, in our opinion, is based not just on numbers but also on the caliber of the men who wear the White Cross and the daily dedication they show to one another.

 

This year, we are particularly committed to creating momentum through leadership development and recruitment. We are lucky to have a committed group of officers and brothers who are committed to advancing the chapter and providing opportunities for upcoming FIU Sigma Chi men. We will continue to fortify Lambda Iota's foundation for many years to come by investing in our members and upholding high standards.

 

Without the ongoing assistance of our friends, sponsors, and alumni, none of our accomplishments would be possible. Your leadership, mentoring, and financial support for our chapter have been invaluable in getting us to this point. We are appreciative of your unwavering faith in our purpose and the example you set for upcoming Sigma Chi brother generations.

 

I am thrilled about the prospects that await me as Consul. Together, we will continue building a chapter that upholds the highest ideals of Sigma Chi while creating a lasting impact on our campus and community. I look forward to serving alongside our brothers as we continue striving toward excellence and writing the next chapter of Lambda Iota's story.

 

We appreciate you taking the time to browse our website and discover more about our chapter. We can't wait to build on the foundation laid by our predecessors and look forward to the future.

 

In Hoc Signo Vinces,

​

Matt Hernandez

Consul Of The Lambda Iota Chapter
