斐陶斐榮譽學會 (Honor Society Phi Beta Kappa) 成立
1776125

斐陶斐榮譽學會後來擴展到新英格蘭地區的大學裡。到了十九世紀末,這個曾經是秘密的、全以男性為主的團體拋棄了自己的秘密誓言,開放女性申請加入,並且轉型成為全國性的榮譽學會。現在這個學會致力於培養與認可在文科與科學方面有優異表現的學生。目前已經有超過250個分會,並且有超過50萬位會員,包括六位現任最高法院大法官,以及總統喬治布希與比爾柯林頓。這個榮譽學會也頒發著作獎與論文獎。考慮努力的學習以加入學校的榮譽學會。有一天你也可能成為斐陶斐的一員。


Phi Beta Kappa spread to colleges throughout New England. By the end of the 19th century, the once secretive, exclusively male social group had dropped its oath of secrecy, opened its doors to women, and transformed into a national honor society. Now it is dedicated to cultivating and recognizing excellence in the liberal arts and sciences. More than 250 chapters serve more than 500,000 living members, including six of the current Supreme Court justices and Presidents George Bush and Bill Clinton. The society also offers book and essay awards. Think about working toward and joining an honor society at school. Someday you may be a Phi Beta Kappa!
