The Citadel's Phi Kappa Phi chapter recognizes 2015 inductees

2016 Feb 25

The Citadel's chapter of The National Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi celebrated its 37th anniversary in 2016 by inducting 50 new members, including three accomplished faculty and 47 cadets and students.

Dylan Maier of Greer, South Carolina (29650), was among 49 other members inducted into Phi Kappa Phi.

Chapter President Elizabeth Connor noted that an invitation to Phi Kappa Phi is not easily earned.

"Each year, students who excel academically and maintain integrity and high ethical standards are invited to join this prestigious honor society. Only the top 7.5 percent of juniors and the top 10 percent of seniors and graduate students are eligible for membership," said Connor. "Faculty, administrators, professional staff, and alumni who have achieved scholarly distinction also qualify for membership. This year's inductees embody the Society's motto: "Let the love of learning rule humanity."

Phi Kappa Phi is the nation's oldest and most selective honor society for all academic disciplines.
