Each year, Delta Chi recognizes our collegiate chapters and provisional chapters, alumni chapters, members, and friends for the amazing things they do on campus, in the Fraternity, in their careers, and in society at large.
Collegiate Individual Awards

Outstanding COLLEGIATE LEADERSHIP AWARD
The Outstanding Collegiate Leadership award recognizes Delta Chi officers and chairs, not in the position of the "C" or "E", who have significantly improved the chapter or provisional chapter through their leadership, vision, and execution of responsibilities.

"E" Key Award
The “E” Key Award is the oldest award given by the Fraternity and seeks to recognize chapter and provisional chapter “E”s for their exceptional performance of all communicative duties.

Marge Lee Outstanding "C" Award
The Marge Lee Outstanding “C” Award recognizes chapter and provisional chapter “C”s who exhibit exceptional performance in all their required and recommended duties.

Chapter Luminary
Each chapter and provisional chapter selects one Chapter Luminary every year to be recognized due to the member’s exemplification of Delta Chi’s ideals and for their overall involvement with the Fraternity, campus and community.
Core Competency Awards
Delta Chi’s core competency awards recognize chapters and provisional chapters that demonstrate operational accomplishments within four key fraternal standards:
- Promote Friendship: Recruitment & Retention, Brotherhood, Alumni & Family Engagement, Ritual
- Develop Character: Philanthropy, Service, Public Relations, Community Engagement, International Fraternity Involvement
- Advance Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion, Health & Safety, Governance, Accountability, Financial Management, Housing (if applicable)
- Assist in the Acquisition of a Sound Education: Scholarship, Associate Member Education, Member Development
Within each standard, chapters are recognized in three differing operational levels : achievement, excellence, or excellence with distinction. Those that receive the achievement award are recognized for their significant improvements and are approaching standards in fraternity operations. Chapters that receive the excellence award are recognized for meeting the Fraternity’s standards of operational excellence. Chapters that receive the excellence with distinction award are recognized for exceeding standards and demonstrating mastery of the Fraternity’s standards of operational excellence.
