NDSU’s Epsilon Delta chapter of the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity received the prestigious 2013 True Merit Award at the organization’s awards banquet Aug. 24 in Indianapolis. The chapter was recognized with the honor for the 14th time.
“Because of NDSU’s proven success as a chapter, individual members enjoy a strong experience that enhances their college education and makes them more valuable as citizens, currently on their campus, but very soon, as members of their respective communities,” said Wynn Smiley, national fraternity chief executive officer. “NDSU has demonstrated why it is respected and why the brothers have every reason to be proud.”
The True Merit Award emphasizes commitment to the mission of the fraternity, including positive community and campus involvement.
NDSU is recognized as one of the nation's top 108 public and private universities by the Carnegie Commission on Higher Education.
