General Information
Phi Eta Sigma is a
national honor society for
college first-year students. Our goal is to promote and recognize
academic excellence among first-year students in institutions
of higher learning. The oldest and largest freshman honor society,
Phi Eta Sigma was founded at the University of Illinois on March
22, 1923. We now have more than 350 chapters throughout the
United States and more than 900,000 inducted members. Phi Eta
Sigma was voted membership into the
Association of College Honor
Societies in 1937. Only three societies have had longer continuous
membership. Our members take a great deal of pride in the 75-year
accomplishments of our society despite the fact that we have
the lowest membership fee of any membership of the association.
Georgia Southern marked its 16th year as an
active chapter on October 19, 2007.
Members who chose to be active in the
Phi Eta Sigma student organization work in conjunction with the
Peer Leader Program to promote first-year experience on campus
and are involved with other community service activities in the
Statesboro area.
For questions about the organization, contact
chapter president
Jessica Spaleta or faculty advisor
Dr. Chris
Caplinger.
