Jonathan Krueger, a member of our Lambda Chapter at Emporia State University received the North-American Intrerfraternity Conference Award of Distinction at a lunch in Washington DC on April 20, 2009.  Brother Krueger was one of five undergraduates from over 800 campuses chosen to receive this recognition.  The Undergraduate Award of Distinction seeks to recognize the fraternity man who has found in his experience an outlet for developing as both a leader and a better man.

Jonathan Krueger is one of four men that Lambda Chapter alumni recruited as a freshmen three years ago to restart their chapter. From the very beginning he took a leadership role with the colony as president for two years (now a chapter) and on campus. He is currently a junior with a 3.97 GPA. His list of accomplishments is impressive and to name a few includes student government, numerous leadership societies, involvement with the state of Kansas Higher Education Board and an internship in the state of Kansas Attorney General’s Office. He is truly a Man of Character Committed to Making a Difference.

It is important to point out that Jonathan is not alone in this recognition. He is a result of continued commitment from the Lambda Alumni as well as excellent support from his chapter brothers, many of whom I believe would be just as deserving of this recognition. Lambda Chapter is the first experiment with our “Book Scholarship Expansion” approach and is proof that it can work well. The chapter is currently one of the largest on campus, has the highest chapter GPA on campus, and produces leaders such as Jonathan. All of this in just 3 years.

Congratulations to Jonathan and to Lambda Chapter for this achievement!
