Congratulations to the brothers of the Sigma Beta Chapter at UC - Santa Barbara (UCSB) on receiving the Louis Sherr Chapter of the Year Award! 🏆🏆

Sigma Beta had a transformative year, growing to nearly 70 brothers and strengthening Jewish life on campus through weekly Shabbat, holiday programming and close partnerships with Hillel and Chabad.

In the face of a troubling rise in antisemitism at UCSB — including harassment directed at their house and brothers — Sigma Beta refused to remain silent. The chapter documented and formally reported incidents, worked alongside Hillel and the ADL and advocated directly to university leadership on
behalf of Jewish students. Chapter President Jonah Chizinsky also brought that advocacy to the national level when he was invited to testify before the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights about antisemitism on college campuses.

The brothers continue to work with the UCSB administration to better their relationship with the university and to work cooperatively to improve the campus climate for the Jewish community.

AEPi continued making an impact in countless other ways, raising more than $2,000 for philanthropy and helping a majority of the chapter earn CPR certification through a health fair co-hosted with UCSB Hillel.

Sigma Beta also made major strides in strengthening its alumni community, hosting an event that brought together more than 150 brothers across generations and building momentum toward the chapter’s 40th Anniversary reunion in 2027.
Through Jewish leadership, brotherhood, service, campus advocacy, and a growing connection between generations of AEPi brothers, Sigma Beta exemplifies what it means to be an Outstanding Chapter!

As summer comes to a close, we’re proud to recognize some of our brothers in AEPi Santa Barbara who spent the past few months gaining experience across a wide range of industries.

From engineering and finance to healthcare, research, law, and more, our brothers represented the Sigma Beta Chapter while building valuable skills and making an impact beyond UCSB.

Mazal tov, brothers!
