The honor society of Phi Kappa Phi

J Am Coll Dent. 2008 Spring;75(1):4-7.

Abstract

The Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi is the nation's oldest, largest, and most highly selective all-discipline honor society, with more than three hundred chapters on campuses across the country. The structure and continuity of the organization depend on volunteer faculty and student leaders at each college or university, both for selection and induction of honorees and for our increasing service role. Renewing and supporting the local leadership is a critical challenge facing Phi Kappa Phi. This is addressed through expanded electronic communication and awards and recognition programs. Like all voluntary organizations, Phi Kappa Phi works to create a perception of name recognition and membership value in an increasingly competitive environment.
