Eddie Higginbotham named 2011 NIC Undergraduate of Distinction

Theta Chi Fraternity is pleased to announce that Eddie Higginbotham (Eta Omicron/Northwestern State 2010) has been named a 2011 recipient of the North-American Interfraternity Conference’s Undergraduate Award of Distinction, considered to be one of the most prestigious undergraduate honors in the interfraternity world.

First presented in 2002, the Undergraduate Award of Distinction “seeks to recognize the fraternity man who has found in his experience an outlet for developing as both a leader and a better man.” This year’s NIC awards will be presented on April 10, 2011, in Washington, D.C.

Eddie, also the Fraternity’s 2010 Colley Award winner, is the ninth Theta Chi individual to receive this honor from the NIC. Brother Higginbotham’s win also marks the fifth consecutive year that a Theta Chi has received the Undergraduate Award of Distinction. Past Theta Chi recipients include Colley Award winners Daniel Neumann (Beta Nu/Case Western 2009), Kevin Reilly (Tau/Florida 2008), Erik Lange (Zeta Kappa/Ohio Northern 2007) and current Executive Director Michael Mayer (Epsilon Phi/Central Missouri 2004).
