Pi Sigma Alpha, the political science honor society
Every spring, the Department of Political Science and International Affairs inducts a number of its best students into Pi Sigma Alpha, the national honor society for political science.
Selection for membership in this 600-chapter academic honor society is based entirely upon classroom performance.
To be eligible, juniors and seniors must have successfully completed 12 upper-level semester hours of work in political science and international affairs with an overall GPA of 3.2 and a GPA of 3.2 in the 12 or more upper-level semester hours completed in political science courses within the major.
Invitations to join the honor society are mailed out every year after spring break.
