Nolan Burch Greek Leadership Academy

Apply today to be a member of the Iota Class of Spring 2024 of the Nolan Burch Greek Leadership Academy!

This multi-week, non-credit experiential leadership experience will pull together select student leaders from any recognized fraternity or sorority to discuss critical issues facing Fraternity & Sorority Life both at WVU and nationally. There is no fee to participate.

The Burch Academy has a special focus on the lasting legacy of Nolan Burch, a WVU student who passed away in 2014 due to an unnecessary alcohol hazing ritual in a unrecognized fraternity. In an effort to promote a healthy and safe fraternity and sorority experience for all students at WVU, the Burch Fellows will be equipped with resources and tools that will inspire a paradigm shift in culture.

 Any initiated member in good standing from a recognized social fraternity or sorority is eligible to apply.

Burch Fellows (those students who complete the Academy) will be recognized at the annual Greek Awards banquet in April.

Spring 2024 Instructors:

Carter Lukes, Graduate Assistant for the Interfraternity Council and Chapter Management Specialist

Akeya Simeon, Assistant Director
