Year in Review Letter from the Assistant Director The fraternity and sorority community at Stockton University experienced a year of great achievement in 2014-2015. This was due to the incredible support of our campus partners and the hard work each of our students put forward. Some of the highlights from this year are: The all-greek GPA surpassed the all-stockton GPA 38% of Greeks made the Dean s List in 2014-2015 6 students attended the Northeast Greek Leadership Association Conference in Hartford, Connecticut 7 students attended the Cultural Greek Leadership Conference at William Paterson University The Stockton fraternity and sorority community was recognized on the Gamma Sigma Alpha National Greek Academic Honor Society Honor Roll for GPA 4 Greeks participated in Alternative Break for Habitat for Humanity Over 64 unique non-profit organizations and communities were provided service and philanthropic dollars from the Stockton fraternity and sorority community 15% increase in overall membership As you read through the report, it is my hope that you will celebrate the successes as well as the challenges that were presented over the course of this year. As we prepare for a new year, we know that there is much to be proud of and more to accomplish within this community. Fraternally, Joseph Thompson

Fraternity and Sorority Awards and Recognition The Fraternity and Sorority Awards are designed to provide an objective assessment of a chapter s performance. The evaluation process for these awards is completed through active reporting and nominations that are submitted online. This process is implemented not as a competition, but as a way for every chapter to measure their growth as an organization on an annual basis. The opportunity for recognition is provided to chapters that excel in the areas of academics, service, and Greek unity.
