| Isaac M. Jordan, besides being one of the "recalcitrant six," was largely responsible for the initial expansion of Sigma Chi. While a student he vigorously recruited new members both at Miami and on other campuses. Upon graduation he studied law and was admitted to the bar; he practiced in Dayton and later formed a law practice with his brothers in Cincinnati. In 1882, Jordan was elected to Congress. He is remembered for his high ambition and initiative reflected in the Jordan Standard, which has become the guide for pledging men to Sigma Chi. |
