Epsilon Alpha Sigma is proud to recognize Diana Zeineddine as our 2017 Empowered Arab Sister of the year, for her passionate character and strong leadership roles, both within ΕΑΣ and beyond.
Originally from Lebanon, Zeineddine was raised in Dubai and moved to Las Vegas at the age of thirteen. Her upbringing in the Middle East and her passion to dismantle stereotypes about the region influenced her to initiate expansion of the Empowered Arab Sisterhood to the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV). As a Founding Sister and President of Epsilon Alpha Sigma at UNLV, Zeineddine's hard work and dedication was key in establishing the Gamma chapter. Under her leadership, the Gamma chapter achieved significant strides both on campus and in the Las Vegas community. In their first year as an organization, UNLV's Multicultural Greek Council awarded the Gamma chapter with being the "'Most Philanthropic'' and ''Most Culturally Aware." Her leadership efforts were recognized by National Board through a Leadership Award in March 2017.
Zeineddine's strong perseverance and work ethic is highlighted in all that she does. Outside of her roles in the Gamma chapter, Zeineddine is heavily involved in media work and her university's spirit team. Zeineddine is currently an anchor and reporter for UNLV TV's Studio G and was previously an anchor for KCLV Channel 2’s Rebel Report, where she reported on UNLV's athletics to the broader Vegas community. Additionally, she is the Captain of the UNLV Scarlet Dance Line, leading her team in performances at various university sports events. On top of her highly busy schedule, Zeineddine has been on the Deans Honor List for the past three years, perfectly balancing her community involvement with her academic achievements!
Beyond her leadership and professional activities, Diana is a thoughtful individual who always seeks the best interests for ΕΑΣ and her sisters. She is a passionate and intelligent woman whose drive, wit and caring personality embodies the central message of the Empowered Arab Sisterhood.
Zeineddine is graduating this Spring with a degree in broadcast journalism and a double minor in theatre and dance. With her background in media and arts, she aims to use her degree to diminish stereotypes of Arab women worldwide and represent the true beauty of the Arab culture. We are so proud of all of Zeineddine's accomplishments thus far and can't wait to see where she goes next!
