Phi Beta Kappa Chapter Inducts New Members
|
The annual induction of new members into Phi Beta Kappa will be held at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, May 24, in the Glass Pavilion on the Homewood campus. Students and faculty members who have previously been elected to Phi Beta Kappa by any university are welcome to attend.
Phi Beta Kappa, the first society to have a Greek letter name, was founded in 1776 at the College of William and Mary to foster and recognize excellence in the liberal arts and sciences. The Hopkins chapter--known officially as the Alpha Chapter of Maryland of the Phi Beta Kappa Society--was established in 1895.
Juniors elected to the society generally rank around the top 2 percent and seniors in the top 10 to 15 percent of their respective classes, not counting engineering students or those previously elected. In addition to a high cumulative average, the nominating committee looks for evidence of outstanding intellectual achievement and breadth of learning.
Undergraduates attending SAIS and the Johns Hopkins/Columbia University Accelerated Interdisciplinary Legal Education Program are eligible for election and are judged on the same basis as the students completing a regular four-year sequence at Homewood. The Hopkins Chapter of Phi Beta Kappa does permit some doctoral students to be admitted as well.
