This Guy is NUTS! About SigEp

Go, Renato, Go!

Renato Villacorte (CA Mu '91) is a loyal member of the NUTS! group that raises money for undergraduate scholarships to Conclaves. At this year's Conclave in Dallas Grapevine Several brothers challenged him to run in the "Sound Body 5K Run" and promised to donate to the NUTS! fund or the Fallen Brothers Fund (for families of those lost in service to their country). Brother Garry Keif even promised to double his $500 pledge if Renaton did the run in a purple and red wig!

As you can see in this picture Renato was up to the challenge! By completing the run in spite of the conspiracy to render him unfit by plying him with strong spirits the night before, and by wearing the aforementioned wig in the 90 degree heat, our stalwart brother has managed to single-handedly raise nearly $5000 for the NUTS! and Fallen Brothers funds.

Congratulations to Brother Villacorte and also to those loyal brothers who gave so generously to "incentivize" him to succeed in the 5K challenge. Maybe next time we can get him to run in a full wet suit!

The Balanced Man Scholarship is a program run by the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity at Boston University and intended for ALL STUDENTS, NOT JUST GREEKS. The scholarship strives to recognize outstanding students who exemplify our philosophy by living balanced lives and striving for excellence in every endeavor amidst the very challenging college academic environment. The program includes $1000 and $500 awards given to incoming freshman based on academic and extracurricular merits. This is a program that exists in SigEp chapters across the nation, and we would like to make this scholarship available to BU students.
