The Eighteen Founding Fathers believed that multiculturalism is not indicative of the physical composition of an organization on a chapter or national level; it is viewed as a state of mind––a philosophy that embraces any aspects of cultural identity with unconditional respect and equality.

Psi Sigma Phi Multicultural Fraternity Inc. was co-founded on December 12, 1990, at Montclair State University and New Jersey City University (at the time Jersey City State College) as a service-oriented, multicultural fraternity.

[1][2] Psi Sigma Phi's founders created the fraternity to emphasize the importance of multiculturalism in the lives of college students.

This goal is accomplished through hard work, sacrifice, and courage from all of its brothers, who strive to break social fears and ignorance.

Other services participated in on a national level include City Year, Food Bank of New Jersey, American Cancer Society, Newark Soup Kitchens, and Adopt a Highway.
