Delta Upsilon Awards of Merit
The name for the DU Awards of Merit has been so chosen because of the Fraternity’s historical tie to the Founders description: “the only superiority that we acknowledge is the superiority of merit” when selecting members to join DU. Likewise, it is the same basis in meaning for these awards, which are presented to esteemed members and friends of the Fraternity who have exhibited their devotion to the Fraternity as well as excellence or notoriety within their field of profession.
