Phi Eta Sigma honors those
freshmen students who receive an accumulative G.P.A. of 3.5 or greater. The
group encourages academic excellence among students, as well as campus and
community service, through recognition and scholarship awards.
Founded
in 1923, Phi Eta Sigma has more than 300 chapters throughout the United States
with over 900,000 members nationally. The UNK chapter, which was
chartered in 1984, engages in campus and community service activities and
promotes scholarship through annual awards to selected chapter members.
Activities include Blue and Gold Days, The Big Event and book collections
through the Better Worlds Books, which funds national and global literacy
projects. At the end of each academic year, chapter scholarships are awarded.
Meetings are scheduled for 5:30 pm on the 1st Wednesday of each month.
