Honor Societies Induct New Members
On
Sunday, February 27, 2005, the members of the Phi Sigma Iota,
the International Foreign Language Honor Society for Spanish
and French, gathered in the Hoffman House along with professors,
family and friends to induct new members in both Phi Sigma
Iota and Dobro Slovo, the Slavic Honor Society. It was evident
from the preparation, the work involved, and the large number
of people who attended how important this acknowledgement
is. Beth Drew, the President of the Lambda Chapter of Phi
Sigma Iota says, “It was wonderful to see the parents
supporting their children. It is fabulous to see so many people
taking an interest in another language.” Inductees were
selected based on their overall academic success and particularly
for their distinction in one or more foreign language. These
students understand the importance of incorporating languages
and cultures into their studies: this is good, as those who
study a foreign language do better in their studies overall.
2005 has been declared the year of languages, and the month
of February is International month, the month to celebrate
travel to other countries. These talented students are ready
to do just that!
