“It’s really nice to hear such great news, said Seminole Greek Alumni Foundation, Vice-President, Doug Russell. “In addition to the national recognition of the entire university system, many of our individual chapters are recognized as the very best in the country,” said Russell. “The young men and women at Florida State University are extremely sharp – very strong academically, in leadership roles or volunteers in virtually every aspect of campus community.”
