The NDSU Panhellenic Council received two 2009-2011 awards from the National Panhellenic Conference: the Overall Excellence Award and the Leadership Award. Both awards are for campuses with two to five chapters. The awards are based on two years of achievements in areas such as recruitment, judicial procedures, programming and effective committee structure.
The awards will be presented Oct. 15 at the National Panhellenic Conference annual meeting in Austin, Texas.
“This is a huge honor and the women are very deserving of this award,” said Courtney Barstad, coordinator of Greek life at NDSU. “They have worked very hard to promote and program as a Panhellenic Council and are constantly looking for new ways to promote our sorority community.”
The NDSU Panhellenic Council, the governing body for the NDSU Greek women, is comprised of delegates from all three sororities represented at NDSU. The council, promoting cooperation and understanding, provides unity among the chapters. It sponsors scholarships and coordinates publicity for Greek life at NDSU. The NDSU Panhellenic Council also sponsors recruitment, all-sorority meal and Greek Week games and events.
