Fraternal Relevance Accreditation
Contributions Awards for Individual Achievement
Daily outstanding actions are offered by outstanding individuals. These actions and ideals create the progress that is at the heart of the K-State Fraternity and Sorority Strategic Plan and the Fraternal Relevance Accreditation and Minimum Expectations program. Greek awards are offered not just to chapters for their positive contributions to relevance, but also to the many individuals making fraternal relevance possible.
