The Order of Omega was founded at the University of
Miami in the fall of 1959 by a group of outstanding
fraternity men, who felt individuals in the Greek
community should be recognized for their service to the
fraternity system and the University.
Here at UCO, Order of Omega strives to recognize the top
3 percent of Greek students. Each semester, junior or
senior Greek students may apply to become a member.
Applicants who are selected to join the Order will be
invited to an initiation ceremony soon after their
acceptance into the organization.
The purpose of Order
of Omega:
-
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 bring together
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; and
-
To help create an
atmosphere where ideas and issues can be discussed
openly across Greek lines and to help work out
solutions.
