Re: Call For Nominations
The North-American Interfraternity Conference is extending a call for nominations for the NIC Awards of Distinction. These awards are given at our Annual Meeting in Washington DC in April and recognize the best of the best within the fraternity movement.
Awards of Distinction are given on the council, individual, and alumnus level. The Undergraduate Award recognizes the man who has brought favor and distinction to his chapter, council, or university. The council award goes to the IFC whose efforts on behalf of their member groups have enhanced and elevated the entire community. Finally, the alumni award is an award for achievement and service to the national organization above that which is already expected.
I encourage you to help recognize those men who have made a difference in your life. These awards are one way the NIC seeks to advocate on behalf of the fraternity movement and by your nominations we are able to show others that ritual is truly a way of life.
