The Delta Sigma Phi fraternity hosted their philanthropy event, Sigatoni’s, on Thursday, March 21st. Sigatoni’s was an Italian-themed dinner, with many references to classic films such as The Godfather. As I entered Sigatoni’s I was immediately greeted at the door and ushered to my seat, where I was waited on as soon as I sat down and ordered my meal. I was served my meal quite quickly and it was very satisfying. Live music was also being performed by members of Delta Sigma Phi, including the members of local bands Sun Shy and Sphynx. The atmosphere created by the performance made me feel as though I was in a quaint Italian restaurant. When I eventually had to leave Sigatoni’s, I was satisfied with nearly everything about the philanthropy event. I could tell that the Delta Sigma Phi members had put a lot of work into this event to make sure everything went swimmingly.
Sigatoni’s is a yearly event, with the money raised each year going towards The Nest. The Nest is a foundation with the goal of aiding families in crisis or in need through education, advocacy, and free programming. Delta Sigma Phi has partnered with the Nest many times before and this year they were able to raise over $1500 for the charity. It is great to see Greek organizations on campus doing their best to support organizations like Nest. The only negative thing I can say about Sigatoni’s is that I arrived too late and did not secure a bottle of the exclusive “Sigatoni’s Reserve.” I will just have to get one next year, where I hope even more people can attend the event.
