REQUEST – Phi Kappa Phi will be ushering for the honors convocation on May 10 at the Show Me Center.  Ushers should be there about 9:15 am and should be finished by 10:45 am.  We need 8 – 10 volunteers to usher so if you can help, please let me know by March 25.  There is also a need for 2-4 volunteers to help with name cards before commencement.  If you are participating in commencement and could come a little early, maybe you would be interested in helping with the cards.  If you are interested in helping with either of these things or both, please let me know by March 25.  Thank you.

ALSO, we are needing nominations (self or other) for these officer positions:  President-Elect, Secretary, and Student Vice-President .  If you are interested in either of these positions or you know of someone who would be interested, please contact me by March 24.

Initiation


Phi Kappa Phi members are invited to join and iniated in the Spring Semester.  Members are inducted at the same time that the Freshman Honor Society, Phi Eta Sigma, has their inductions.  At this time they also formally install faculty officers and sometimes they install student officers.  Either the President of the College or the Provost gives the Welcome speech and awards Phi Kappa Phi members with their pins.  Traditionally, they host the on-campus reception after the induction.  During the Intiation there also is a key note speaker.
