Greek Honoraries

Order of Omega, Gamma Delta Chapter

Founded in 1979, the University of Arizona's Gamma Delta Chapter of Order of Omega exists to: recognize those fraternity men and women who have attained a high standard of leadership in interfraternity activities, to encourage them to continue along this line, and to inspire others to strive for similar conspicuous attainment; To unite outstanding fraternity men and women to create an organization which will help to mold the sentiment of the institution on questions of local and intercollegiate fraternity affairs; To bring together members of the faculty, alumni, and student members of the institution’s fraternities and sororities on a basis of mutual interest, understanding and helpfulness; To help create an atmosphere where ideas and issues can be discussed openly across Greek lines and to help work out solutions. Members are selected from the top 3% of Juniors and Seniors with above a 3.0 GPA. Led by a team of five officers the organization puts on events that further develop the leadership and academic success of it's members as well as Greek or Treat, a Tucson community-wide safe trick or treat, and the annual Order of Omega Awards, where all Greek Chapters are celebrated and honored.
