Fifty-five Elon University students were inducted into Phi Beta Kappa, the oldest and often considered the nation’s most prestigious honor society, during an April 16 dinner and ceremony.
The new inductees heard remarks from President Connie Ledoux Book and an address by Charles Irons, the William J. Story Jr. Professor of History and chair of the Department of History and Geography. Irons was introduced by Amanda Sturgill, associate professor of journalism.
Phi Beta Kappa has established chapters at 286 colleges and universities in the United States, representing only 10 percent of the nation’s institutions of higher learning. Each year, the top 10 percent of arts and sciences graduates at these institutions are selected for membership. Elon’s Eta Chapter of North Carolina was installed on April 13, 2010.
