At Akron, if our chapter wants to be considered for any awards that are given out at the Greek Recognition Ceremony in April we have to complete an awards packet which always tends to be over 60 pages depending on how many awards you apply for. the sororities have 2 big awards to contend for....Praestania (the all around big time -- like the Deans Cup) and Desiderata (more towards community service). Then it goes down to normal awards for chapter programming, new member scholarship, new member development, chapter scholarship, community service, alumni relations, recruitment excellence, continuous recruitment excellence, public relations....and like 10 or so more. Then each chapter needs to nominate members of their chapter for individual awards like Outstanding Greek Woman (an active member at senior status in school), Outstanding Advisor, and Outstanding Junior Member...which is for an active at junior status and my girls nominated me!!!!
wish me luck everyone i'm hoping to get it!
the fraternities have the same but their big one is the Dean's Cup which there is big competition for.
I can't wait till awards...its a fun night and i've got so much to look forward to since i am up for an award and also presenting the award for Public Relations since i am V.P. Public Relations for Panhellenic Council.
