Dear Brothers, Alumni, and Friends:
Scholarship is a fundamental pillar of the Sigma Chi mission. The Nu Associate Chapter at Northwestern University is dedicated to recognizing brothers who demonstrate academic excellence, personal character, and a deep commitment to the values of our Fraternity.
Since its founding at Northwestern in 1869, Sigma Chi has maintained a proud legacy of campus leadership, academic achievement, and community involvement. Today, the Nu Associate Chapter continues that tradition by encouraging brothers to pursue excellence not only within the chapter, but also in the classroom and across the broader Northwestern community.
Our chapter’s scholarships and awards are intended to honor brothers who exemplify the ideals of Sigma Chi through their integrity, leadership, service, and commitment to those around them. These awards provide an opportunity to recognize the many brothers who have contributed meaningfully to the growth and strength of our chapter.
We are proud to continue supporting a culture in which academic achievement and personal development are celebrated. Through these scholarships, we hope to encourage brothers to keep striving toward the values of Friendship, Justice, and Learning while carrying forward the honorable legacy of Sigma Chi at Northwestern.
In Hoc Signo Vinces,
Isaac Speyer Asher C. Moss
Chairman of the Scholarship Committee Pro Consul and Vice Chairman of the Scholarship Committee

Thaddeus Ray Moulton Memorial Award
Thaddeus (Tad) Ray Moulton (Omega, ’84) was born in Houston, Texas on November 3, 1962. Tad took an interest in classes such as history, mathematics and economic but his main aspiration was to enter the field of law upon graduation. He helped to lead a successful rush effort in May 1981 and was elected to serve as Secretary/Historian for the chapter. He participated in many activities on campus, including Sigma Chi Derby Days and annual philanthropy events. On Friday, July 3,1981 Tad was tragically killed in an automobile accident in Esther, Louisiana. He was returning home for a summer vacation after working on an off-shore drilling rig in Louisiana. For those who came to know him, he will be remembered in the highest regards: an individual who offered a sense of enthusiasm and sincerity for Sigma Chi and for life. The Thaddeus Ray Moulton Memorial Award recognizes the member of the current year pledge classes whose spirit, character, ambition, and scholarship are seen as best exemplifying the commitment and spirit that Brother Moulton possessed as a new initiate.
