Former Cornell IFC President Eddie Rooker received the “Greek Leader of Distinction” award at the Northeast Greek Leadership Association Conference in February. According to the award description, Rooker is one who truly “exemplifies the ideal of fraternity/and or sorority membership in their daily lives”.
Soon after joining Sigma Alpha Epsilon, where he is also a New Member Educator, Rooker began his ascent to presidency as the Vice President of University and Community Relations. As VP UCR, he created and developed many of the present IFC's annual philanthropic events. The following year, he served as IFC President, where he answered the Call to Action Initiative set forth by the university and alumni to increase awareness and address the challenges facing our community related to social responsibility and New Member Education programs.
Rooker also dealt with the repercussions of the H1N1 virus at Cornell where he convinced 42 chapter presidents to temporarily restrict social events in order to prevent the possible spread of the illness. The list of ways in which he has served the Cornell community is endless, as is the praise that his peers bestow on him.
Rooker now presides as a graduate council mentor for all fraternities at Cornell. For over a decade, Cornell University Greek delegates have attended the NGLA conference where it has received dozens of awards and national recognitions.
