Many men have passed through the SigEp chapter at Sac State. Today we remember one of those brothers.
As an undergraduate, Joaquin was a hands-on member of the chapter, contributing to successful fundraising and social events. He continued supporting the chapter even after transferring to the University of San Francisco to complete his bachelor's degree. Joaquin joined the Alumni & Volunteer Corporation in Fall 2014, where he successfully planned the chapter's 50th Annual Sweethearts Formal. He then served as Director of Strategic Planning, developing a long-term vision for the chapter and strengthening its relationship with the undergraduate membership. Later, as President of the Alumni & Volunteer Corporation, he rallied local alumni and board members around a partial renovation of the chapter facility. At the 2018 Carlson Leadership Academy, Joaquin was recognized as the Outstanding New Volunteer for District 25.
Joaquin embodied what it means to be a SigEp — not just during his years as an undergraduate, but throughout his life. He gave his time, his energy, and his vision to a chapter and a brotherhood that were better for having known him. We are grateful for the example he set and the mark he left on this chapter. He will be missed, and he will be remembered.
