Sorority Advisor Earns National Award
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Xong Lor, who serves as an advisor to the Gamma chapter of the Gamma Eta sorority at the University of Arkansas, has been named Chapter Advisor of the Year by the National Multicultural Greek Council.
The award is given in recognition of a college or university professional who supports the standards of the multicultural Greek community as a fraternity or sorority chapter advisor.
The National Multicultural Greek Council was established in 1998 as an umbrella council for a coalition of multicultural Greek-letter organizations. The purpose of council is to provide a forum that allows for the free exchange of ideas, programs, and services between its constituent fraternities and sororities; to promote the awareness of multicultural diversity within collegiate institutions, their surrounding communities, and the greater community-at-large, and to support and promote the works of its member organizations.
Xong Lor is a member of the University of Arkansas Talent Search unit and works as an academic advisor for College Project Talent Search. She is a sister of Gamma Eta, and volunteers her time to advise the sorority.
