Florida Delta Wins Most Improved Chapter, Fraternity Man of the Year, and Multiple IFC Awards |
On April 22nd, the Florida Delta Chapter (Miami) was named the University of Miami IFC's most improved chapter for the 2009-2010 school year. Over the course of the school year, the Chapter had three brothers serve four positions on the last two IFC executive boards. They also initiated the second most members of any chapter in the fall, and had four brothers serve on the 2010 Greek Week executive board, including the Co-Chairman for the second straight year.
In addition to Greek leadership, Florida Delta produced multiple brothers who served as peer academic advisors, multiple teachers assistants, intramurals supervisors, residence assistants, and student government senators. During the Association of Greek Letter Organizations awards ceremony, Florida Delta took home eight chapter and individual awards, the most of any chapter at Miami.
Florida Delta Phi Dallas Short was named the University of Miami IFC's Fraternity Man of the Year for 2009-2010. In addition, Short also received the Order of Omega senior leader award, as well as the Dean of Student's excellence award. Short, a two-time chapter president of Florida Delta, also served one semester as the Vice President of Recruitment for IFC this year and served on the executive board for multiple campus-wide community service/ fundraising events. He was the Co-Chair for the University of Miami's 2010 Greek Week, which set a new record for money raised, donating over $28,000 to United Cerebral Palsy and an additional $3,000 to Haiti Relief efforts.
Ethan Alpern was named the 2010 Bill McCoy Award winner at the University of Miami's annual Greek awards dinner. As a result of winning the award, Alpern received a full scholarship for his senior year. The award is given each year on the basis of leadership, service, academics, and athletics. Alpern, the current University of Miami IFC president, has a 3.4 GPA while balancing two majors and two minors. Alpern also served as the Vice President of Coordinators for IFC for the 2009 term, and has served on the executive board of several other campus organizations.
Juniors Eric Spiegel, Brendan Smith, and Alex Bryant took home individual awards at the University of Miami's annual Greek awards banquet. Spiegel was named the winner of the 2010 Mark S. Spiegel Award, given for generosity of Spirit. This is the second straight year that a Florida Delta Phi has taken home this award, which rewards the winner with a $500 scholarship. Smith and Bryant, both IFC coordinators for the 2009 calendar year, won IFC co-coordinator of the year. Smith, serving as IFC's Student Government Senator, spearheaded the effort that put a student section at University of Miami baseball games. Bryant, serving as IFC's Public Relations Chairman got multiple articles promoting Greek excellence at UM published in the school newspaper, and now serves on the IFC Executive Board as Secretary.
