Sigma (GIS) received top honors in 10 categories during the parent
organization’s Annual Management Conference in Mount Pleasant,
Michigan during the weekend of September 28-October 2, 2010.
Nearly a dozen chapter members were in attendance to
congratulate Rajiv Sagewan, chapter president, as he received the
Warren L. Weeks Leadership scholarship for his outstanding efforts
to further the goals of his chapter and the fraternity. The other
nine awards included public relations, alumni relations, chapter
management, membership development and community service honors as
well as awards for innovative and unique events.

Call, Dedicated Service and Black & Gold awards. This year’s
honors demonstrate the chapter’s continued growth and outstanding
commitment to service.
