Applications/Nominations
Chapter officers and advisors are asked to remind eligible and deserving students of these award opportunities and encourage them to apply for recognition. Student nominees should complete and submit their own application materials, found at www.sigmanu.org/awards.
Officers or alumni interested in nominating an advisor or volunteer may do so with the materials found at www.sigmanu.org/alumniawards. Nominations may be made with or without the knowledge of the nominee.
Awards materials should be emailed to headquarters@sigmanu.org by April 30, 2021. If you are unable to collect any pertinent information required by an awards application (e.g. transcript), please contact Scott Smith, Director of Leadership Development, at scott.smith@sigmanu.org.
Selections and Announcements
All application and nomination materials will be reviewed in May. Winners will be selected and announced over the summer and featured on the Fraternity’s website, social media, and in an upcoming issue of The Delta.
Presentations will be made for “of the year” winners at the Fraternity’s next in-person conclave (i.e. Grand Chapter or College of Chapters).
If you have any questions about the awards process, please contact Scott Smith, Director of Leadership Development, at scott.smith@sigmanu.org.
