Chapter History
Omega Sigma Tau was founded in 1966 by Ron Watanabe, Bob Tsutsui, and Dennis Onoda of the Nissei Bruins Men’s Club. These three names are icons in our history because of their efforts and their contributions to Omegas as presidents of the fraternity. The initial charter group that they formed with other members of the Nissei Bruins Men’s Club consisted of about twenty men.
Since its founding in 1966, Omegas has grown to become one of the largest and most active fraternities in the nation. Although the size of the fraternity does fluctuate, Omega Sigma Tau maintains an average of 65 members per year, and this fraternity has seen days when there were over 80 members during a school year.
