Alpha Sigma Nu—The Jesuit Honor Society at SJU

Alpha Sigma Nu—The Jesuit Honor Society at SJU Alpha Sigma Nu is the Jesuit Honor Society for students who exemplify scholarship, loyalty to the ideals of Jesuit education, and service to others.

Alpha Sigma Nu was founded at Marquette University in 1915. The society, known as Alpha Sigma Tau until 1930, spread from Marquette to Creighton University to St. Louis University and to the University of Detroit in its first decade. By 1924, Marquette University had become coeducational and Gamma Pi Epsilon was founded to honor outstanding women. Alpha Sigma Nu and Gamma Pi Epsilon pursued separa

te but similar paths for almost 50 years, expanding nationally and cooperating on campuses where they existed together. The society born of their merger in 1973 is now open to men and women at the 30 institutions of higher education in the United States, as well as Sogang University in Seoul, Korea, and Regis College in Toronto, Canada.
