Homecoming
(September 25-26, 2026)
Join the Celebrations at Strand Union Building, Leigh Lounge, on MSU campus. We will have an Order of Constantine Award Ceremony for Erik Bostrom ’01 and celebrate the selection of Walt Smith ’85 and Ty Corder ’85 as newly elected Sigma Chi Significant Sigs, all members of the Beta Rho Chapter.
The Order of Constantine award is the highest honor for members who have committed at least 20 years of exemplary service to either the local and/or international organizations. Fewer than 900 brothers have been inducted into the order of Constantine since 1948.
The Significant Sig Award recognizes members who have achieved high levels of Professional success in their careers. Since 1953, the Fraternity has honored fewer than 2,600 Sigma Chis with this Award.
The cocktail reception will include appetizers (light dining choices) with a selection of alcohol and soft drinks. Significant others are welcome. The cost for the event and reception is $30 per person. You will be provided a couple of free tickets for alcohol, any additional alcoholic beverages are available for purchase.

Football Tickets
HERE’S MOST IMPORTANT PART!
To purchase football tickets, we will provide an online code once approved by MSU (more updates coming as MSU provides us more information) or call the Athletic Department ticket office at 406-994-2287 beginning August 4 and ask for tickets in the Sigma Chi Alumni section 109 (sideline seats) or section 124 (end zone seats). The sideline seats are more expensive. You can pick up the tickets at Will Call on Game Day. DO NOT purchase your tickets online because you will not be in Sigma Chi Alumni section if you do.
Tailgates
Pre-game Beta Rho Tailgates will be held in various locations. See the hosts and maps below.
We are recommending that you attend the Tailgates as indicated by the year of your graduation as you will meet most of the brothers from your time at Beta Rho. Of course, you are free to attend any of the Tailgates.
Please be sure to introduce yourself to the Beta Rho host. You should also be aware that these hosts hold Tailgates for most Bobcat games so other non-Beta Rho guests will likely also be present.
