Alpha Sigma Phi (ΑΣΦ), commonly known as Alpha Sig, is a collegiate men's secret and social fraternity with 172 currently active chapters. Founded at Yale in 1845, it is the 10th oldest fraternity in the United States.
The fraternity practices many traditions. Its Latin motto is Causa Latet Vis Est Notissima ("The cause is hidden, the results well-known"). The fraternity's official symbol is the phoenix, as the phoenix rises from the ashes of its old body, signifying the re-founding of the fraternity in the early 1900s. Due to active expansion efforts, Alpha Sigma Phi continues to offer services and opportunities to over 8,000 undergraduate students and 85,000 living alumni.
