For the first time in its history, The Nu Zeta Chapter of Sigma Delta Pi, the National Collegiate Hispanic Honor Society, received the prestigious “Honor Chapter” Award for its outstanding activities realized during the 2010-11 academic year.  Of the 581 chapters nationwide, The CofC’s chapter was one of only 11 chapters to receive this honor.  This achievement was due in large part to the direction of the chapter adviser, Dr. Marianne Verlinden, as well as the fine leadership of Nu Zeta’s student officers: Dylan Kornegay, chapter president; Sharmaine Edwards, chapter vice-president; chapter president, Katie Williamson. http://news.cofc.edu/2011/07/26/hispanic-honor-society-chapter-earns-top-marks/
