Purpose of the Order

The Eta Phi chapter of the Order of Omega was founded at Duke University in 1987.  Its purpose is twofold.  First, it is to honor exceptional members of the Greek community who excel in the areas of scholarship, leadership and service.  Second, it is to bring together these leaders to work toward the common goal of a stronger Greek community.  Each semester, dinner discussions and formal meetings are held to generate dialogue on how to address important issues facing the Greek community at Duke.  Today, the Eta Phi chapter has 35 members with representation from the four governing councils.  They include chapter presidents, varsity athletes, club leaders and university scholars.
