The Norman Shield's commemorative 2005 issue
The Norman Shield, or the Shield informally, is the reference manual of the Sigma Chi Fraternity. It is intended to be a "well of knowledge during pledgeship" and for active membership.[1] First compiled in 1929 by Arthur Vos, Jr. for the Beta Mu chapter at the University of Colorado at Boulder, it contains biographies of the founders and a history of the Fraternity and significant events; Sigma Chi writings, and the Constitution and Statutes. More topical is a list of famous and "Significant Sigs", explanations of chapter and Grand officers, and Sigma Chi events, governing bodies, and scholarships. The current edition is its 42nd, dated for the years 2007-09.
The Norman Shield has been recognized by the College Fraternity Editors' Association at least twice; in 2004 it was given an Award of Merit and in 2006 it was awarded First Place in the Manual category. [2][3]
