The Greek Man and Woman of the Year were announced at the annual Greek Week Awards Night held earlier this week at the University of Nebraska at Kearney.
According to Cami Wacker, associate director for Student Development and Retention Programs, Greek Man and Woman of the Year are selected based on their leadership within the fraternity and sorority community, campus involvement, scholarship, service and a personal interview.
