2021 Award Recipients
Congratulations to all of DU's award recipients from the 2020-2021 academic year!
Aug. 3, 2021 - Delta Upsilon was excited to host its 2021 Leadership Institute in person July 30-Aug. 1 in New Orleans. Each year, LI serves as the Fraternity's largest event and features Fraternity business through the Undergraduate Convention and Assembly of Trustees, educational programming for undergraduates and alumni, and awards presentations.
Delta Upsilon is proud to announce the recipients of its 2021 awards. In an academic year unlike any other in DU history, the chapters and brothers of Delta Upsilon rose to the occasion, continuing to provide a valuable membership experience both virtually and physically distanced.
As always, the highlight of LI is the presentation of our Sweepstakes Trophy. This year, two chapters took home the trophy and honors as the top chapter in Delta Upsilon. The Kansas State Chapter took home the Sweepstakes Trophy for the sixth year in a row, while the Iowa State Chapter was named Sweepstakes Trophy winner for the first time in chapter history.
Congratulations to all of DU's 2021 award recipients!
