13 seniors elected to Phi Beta Kappa

By Dan Snyder ’17

At the recent February meeting, the nation’s oldest and most prestigious honor society elected 13 new members to the Epsilon Chapter. The society was established in 1776 by five students at the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, VA, according to the society’s website. The society’s letters stem from the Greek initials for the society’s motto, “Love of learning is the guide of life.” 64 new chapters formed between 1887 and 1917 and 147 more were charted by 1983. Today, 283 chapters and 60 alumni associations thrive across the country. The current members from the Class of 2015 are as follows with the recent inductees in bold:
