Excerpt from The Sigma Phi Epsilon Journal, Vol. 1: October 20, 1906 When we begin to look into the question of life, we find that all life comes from a small cell; and well may we be amazed that such a grand and noble thing as life should come from a little, insignificant, weak cell. Some physiologist has defined life as the sum of the lives of all the cells, and in this definition we find the secret of the great strength of which life is capable. 'tis not in' one cell, but in the close union and harmony of all. Fraternity life is also composed of cells, and as each cell of us is strong or weak so is our fraternity life. Great care, then, should be exercised in picking from among our class-mates men to be our brothers, for to 'have one weak cell is to destroy harmony. But how should we select men? Might be asked.
