Steven Berlowitz '09, Rose Foley 09, Jessica Stein '09 and Britany Mironovich '10 – Greek leaders, May 2009
Each spring, Greek Week showcases the achievements of Union’s fraternities and sororities. A highlight of this year’s festivities, which kicked off Saturday and conclude Friday, is the second annual Greek Awards ceremony.
The ceremony, taking place in Memorial Chapel at 5 p.m. today, includes awards recognizing the four Greek seniors with the highest GPAs, philanthropist of the year and faculty member who has contributed the most to the Greek community.
College President Stephen C. Ainlay, many deans, faculty members and students leaders will also speak during the event.
“This is important because it’s the one time they’re recognized for the contributions they make as Greek students,” said Timothy Dunn, director of Fraternity and Sorority Affairs.
Co-chairs of Greek Week are seniors Britany Mironovich and Brandon McArdle.
Fraternity and sorority history is rich at Union – several national Greek chapters were founded here in 1825. Today, Greek life remains an integral part of campus life. About a third of Union’s overall student body belongs to one of the College’s 12 fraternities or five sororities, which are large supporters of community service projects and campus activities.
