The Founding Principles Of Our Fraternity

THE THREE OBJECTS OF THE FRATERNITY

The purpose of Alpha Chi Sigma is reflected in the Three Objects of the Fraternity, which express the true ideals of all its members:

TO BIND

its members with a tie of true and lasting friendship.

TO STRIVE

for the advancement of chemistry both as a science and as a profession.

TO AID

its members by every honorable means in the attainment of their ambitions as chemists throughout their mortal lives.

Aside from the professional advantages, membership in ΑΧΣ provides the catalyst to form lifelong friendships. This doesn’t end with graduation – it carries on through the years within the Professional Branch of the Fraternity. The rewards of the Fraternity are open to every pledge, collegiate Brother, and professional member.
