Distinguished Volunteers

Dedicated volunteers are fundamental to the success of the Colorado State Chapter of Sigma Phi Epsilon and its mission to build balanced men. Successful mentors serve as thoughtful partners to members on their academic journey and help empower them to become autonomous learners and agents of their own development. They express understanding to their aspirations and support their success by acting as an advocate for their best interests.

The Colorado State AVC has established the Distinguished Volunteer Program to recognize outstanding volunteers who have performed in a way that goes above and beyond what is reasonably expected and those who have demonstrated a longstanding commitment to the fraternity.
