Gamma Iota Sigma

Gamma Iota Sigma is an honorary fraternity with selective membership criteria. To join Gamma Iota Sigma, a student must complete the online application and hazing form. In addition to the recognition associated with membership in an honorary organization, students who join Gamma Iota Sigma have opportunities for extensive contact and interaction with industry representatives, through the meetings and special conferences sponsored by the fraternity, and through the services offered through the​ Gamma Iota Sigma Grand Chapter.

To join Gamma Iota Sigma, complete an application. You will be given the option to pay via debit/credit card when you complete your online application, or a check for dues made out to Gamma Iota Sigma may be brought to the Departmental Office (A405 Moore-Rooker). We do not accept cash payments. Because the dues payments are a one-time only fee, it is advantageous to join both Gamma Iota Sigma and the Insurance Society as early in a student’s college career as possible. For additional details about the fraternity, contact the Faculty Advisor, Jenny Atkinson, located in A416 Moore-Rooker.
