SERVING TOGETHER

Our History

Xi Kappa Sigma was founded on September 19, 1972, at the Mindanao State University (MSU) Main Campus in Marawi City. The fraternity was established by eighteen founding forefathers, led by Prof. Enlai T. Entar, just two days before the declaration of Martial Law via Presidential Decree No. 1081.

The founders envisioned the organization as an instrument to foster better brotherhood and sisterhood between Christian and Muslim students at Mindanao State University.

Core Objectives

  • The organization aims to support government policies dedicated to maintaining peace and order by:

  • Establishing strong relations and cooperation with other individuals, organizations, private entities, and government agencies.
  • Partnering with any group willing to extend friendship and cooperation to the organization and its members.
