Sigma Epsilon Omega (SEO), UC Berkeley's only Gay Fraternity and one of the few recognized Gay Fraternities in the nation, provides male students a unique opportunity to be included in a safe space focused around respect and acceptance. Founded by 3 students at Cal, SEO has continued to break barriers and stereotypes of both the Gay and Greek Communities.

SEO has quickly become one of the most recognized names in the Greek System at Cal for its work with important issues in the community, fun and diverse Brothers, and incomparable social events. SEO is primarily a Social Fraternity, and our events have become legendary across campus: our Lady Gaga party last year is a perfect example! We truly are a group of guys that loves spending time together, having a blast, and making amazing memories!

Even though SEO is one of the newest Fraternities on campus, we already have incredible accomplishments. We have seen rapid growth of our Fraternity starting with a class of 23 Brothers, and we are now maintaining an Active Brotherhood twice that size! We also already have a House to call our own! Being a Housed Chapter is a significant accomplishment for a new Fraternity, and provides all of our Brothers with a unique and amazing Housing opportunity! Feel free to check out our House at 2545 Dana St!

As Brothers, we aim to improve the school community by getting involved in various philanthropy and activism events by raising money, creating awareness, and participating in volunteer work. We seek to foster and maintain a Brotherhood that is based on individual and collective strength, equality, and opportunity. We strive to provide an exciting and vibrant social space specifically, but not exclusively, for gay males.

Although Sigma Epsilon Omega is a Gay Fraternity, our Brotherhood is open to any individual that identifies as male and supports our mission statement. Every individual that rushes (straight, bi-sexual, gay, etc.) will be treated equally and will be put through the same process.
