Awesome Active Award

Ashish Bhatt receiving the Super Awesome Active Award at Krenek Term banquet.

Membership Vice Presidents gave this award on a weekly basis to actives who have contributed positively and notably to the chapter, or have otherwise demonstrated qualities that deserve recognition. The award is presented as a certificate with a Jamba Juice gift card. Introduced in Krenek Term by Membership VPs Becky Le and Christina Ly, the Awesome Active Award was created as a fun way of boosting active morale.

This award effectively replaced the Active of the Week award. The difference between the two is that Active of the Week required a vote, which decidedly took too much time. Instead, the Membership VPs actively looked for candidates for this award and considered suggestions from other actives or pledges. While the award was not distributed during Jaromay Term--the term following Krenek Term--the Awesome Active Award returned in Fall 2009.

A special version of this award called the Super Awesome Active Award was presented to one active Brother by the Membership VPs at Banquet. The original award certificate features a stylish pink background and 'Hello Kitty' theme, because its creators really like Hello Kitty. It is arguably the most stylish certificate ever given by this chapter.
