Additional Info
Herman B Wells, BS’1924, MA’1927, LLD’1962—president and chancellor of Indiana University for 37 years—was a champion of Greek life. Wells joined Sigma Nu Fraternity as a student at IU and served as chapter president. As an alumnus, he became Regent on the High Council, was recognized at the highest level of distinction on the Hall of Honor, and, later in life, was added to the Sigma Nu Hall of Fame, becoming the first Sigma Nu to be inducted into both.
Gifts to this fund, named in his honor, support students to:
- Promote the values and principles with which Greek organizations were founded
- Increase leadership opportunities and promote active involvement among all members of the Greek community
- Teach the history of fraternal organizations
- Increase participation in fraternities and sororities
Efforts to support these goals might include, but are not limited to, bringing nationally recognized educational speakers to campus, awarding scholarships for students to attend to leadership conferences, and providing funding for educational programs within the Greek community.
Thank you for generously supporting the leaders of tomorrow!
