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 that individuals in the Greek
community should be recognized for their service to the fraternity system
and the University. Currently, there are over 400 Order of Omega chapters
on campuses throughout the United States.
