Two Kansas City, Kan., students were inducted into Phi Kappa Phi honor society recently at Emporia State University.
The students are Alicia Houston and Shannon Callahan, both of Kansas City, Kan.
Phi Kappa Phi is the nation’s oldest and most selective collegiate honor society for all academic disciplines.
These two students are among approximately 32,000 students, faculty, professional staff and alumni to be initiated into Phi Kappa Phi each year.
Membership is by invitation and requires nomination and approval by a chapter. Only the top 10 percent of seniors and 7.5 percent of juniors, having at least 72 semester hours, are eligible for membership. Graduate students in the top 10 percent of the number of candidates for graduate degrees may also qualify, as do faculty, professional staff, and alumni who have achieved scholarly distinction.
