Public Reporting of Fraternity and Sorority Chapter Grades Beginning Fall 2009 Semester - The First Public Report to be Published March 1, 2010

In order to better meet the expressed needs of our Potential New Members (PNMs) and ther families, the K-State Greek Affairs Office will begin publicly reporting and ranking aggregate chapter grade information for the following chapter categories: New Members, Initiated Members, All-Chapter Members.  Individual grade information will NOT be publicly reported.  Any chapter reporting category consisting of fewer than two members will not be publicly reported. 


Chapter grade information is K-State Greek Affair's most requested statistic from parents and PNMs.  Previously, Greek Affairs has been unable to respond to these detailed requests because fraternity grades were publicly reported by quartile only and sorority grades were not publicly reported.  Research of Big 12 institutions showed that K-State was in the minority of institutions (Baylor, OK State, OU, CU, K-State) that did not publicly report chapter grade information.

Designated chapter officials such advisors, scholarship chairs, and presidents will continue to receive individual member grade reports each semester.  Recipients of this information will continue to be used for internal, chapter-specific purposes only.
K-STATE HERO AWARD
Do you know a great, inspirational student leader on campus?  Do you know someone who is working hard to make K-State a better place?  Is there someone you know that makes a difference in people's lives every day?  If so, nominate this person for a K-State Hero award!  K-State Hero awards were introduced upon completion of the K-State PROUD Student campaign, and serve to honor and recognize the students who work hard every day to make K-State the place it is.  Five $500 awards will be given this fall to students who have shown their commitment to making K-State better through their leadership and service.  Please nominate your K-State Hero by December 4th!
