Awards and Recognition

Opportunities arise annually within the local Ohio State community as well as within Triangle’s national organization for award winning and recognition.

Triangle Fraternity’s national awards recognize active chapters for their accomplishments, improvement, and achievements. Additionally, individual students, alumni, and volunteers are honored for their leadership, dedication, and service to the fraternity. Learn more on the national organization’s website.

Sorority and Fraternity Life (SFL) within The Ohio State University’s Office of Student Life hosts an annual award ceremony to recognize the contributions of chapters and individuals that have exceeded fraternal expectations. Learn more on the SFL website.
