Order of Omega

Order of Omega is a leadership honor society for members of fraternity and sorority organizations recognizing sophomores, juniors, and seniors who exemplify high standards in the areas of scholarship, leadership, involvement within their respective organization and within the local community.

Members are selected  from among the highest-achieving fraternity and sorority students at each institution. To date, more than 580 chapters have been chartered throughout North America, each sharing the common goal of recognizing the many outstanding student leaders at their institution.

The Lambda Upsilon Chapter of Order of Omega was chartered at NC State University in 1991. Lambda Upsilon Constitution & Bylaws
