Congratulations to the 2019 Award Winners!

Published on July 10, 2019 in News

The Chapter Recognition Dinner, sponsored by the Sigma Tau Gamma Foundation, is a way of recognizing the accomplishments of our chapters, but they are also a way of telling our story. Through the awards nomination and selection process, we can see where we excel, where we can improve, and what it truly means to be a chapter of Sigma Tau Gamma.

At Endeavor Atlanta, the Chain of Honor Awards Gala was held at the College Football Hall of Fame. Many distinguished awards and recognitions were given during the gala including the McCune Distinguished Chapter Award, the Ellsworth C. Dent Man of the Year, and two brothers were inducted into the Society of Seventeen.
