Updated Coronavirus Advisory – March 16, 2020
In keeping with the latest guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Virginia Department of Health, and to continue to do all we can to support measures to protect the public health, this update is effective immediately:
The Headquarters office buildings in Lexington, Va. are closed through March 29, 2020, except for a small group of Fraternity staff who will ensure the continuity of critical functions and upkeep of the Headquarters campus. All meetings, tours, or pilgrimages at the Headquarters campus through March 29, 2020, have been postponed or canceled.
To protect the health of the Fraternity staff, all staff members will work remotely during this time to ensure the continued provision of services and support for the entire Fraternity. We do not presently expect any interruption in such services and support, however, response time to calls and emails may be slower than usual. The General Fraternity staff will remain ready and able to assist all Fraternity constituents as we work together to continue to protect, strengthen, and advance the mission of The Legion of Honor.
Throughout our 151-year history, Sigma Nu Fraternity has weathered public health emergencies and periods of war; Sigma Nu Fraternity will weather this trying time and do all we can to support our Brothers and our communities.
The Fraternity will continue to maintain and update our COVID-19 advisory webpage at www.sigmanu.org/coronavirus. This page includes all advisory statements and resources for collegiate chapters, members, alumni advisors, and house corporations.
Please let us know if we can be of assistance to you. You may contact us anytime at headquarters@sigmanu.org or (540) 463-1869.
Fraternally,
Brad Beacham (Texas Christian)
Executive Director
