According to Steve Quatrani, president of the IFC, the IFC is excited to see the return of Sigma Alpha Mu to campus.
"Sammy is a great opportunity. When restarting an organization on campus, it gives the individual a sense of home away from home, all the while giving leadership skills to excel in any career path," Ryan Winthrop, expansion consultant for Sigma Alpha Mu, said.
Jacobson encourages male students, especially those that say they are not a "fraternity guy" to become involved with Sigma Alpha Mu.
According to Al Russakow, a 1980 graduate, Sigma Alpha Mu alumni are very excited about the return to Drexel's campus.
"Sammy was held in high regard when I was there. We were the premier frat on Drexel's campus, both athletically and academically," Russakow said.
Sammy previously resided at 3411 Powelton Ave., the current Phi Mu and Phi Sigma Sigma house.
"We actually do have a plan for housing; the alumni are in the process of securing a house. It is not determined, the location, yet, but it will probably be in the Greek row area," Jacobson said.
According to Jacobson, Sammy could not be returning to campus at a better time, especially with the school expanding.
"Greek life looks forward to growing as a whole, and we look forward to welcoming more members and reaching out to a greater amount of students," Quatrani wrote in an e-mail.
