One hundred and two seniors were elected April 17 to the Rhode Island Alpha chapter of Phi Beta Kappa, Chapter Administrator Mary Jo Foley wrote in an email to The Herald.
Founded at the College of William and Mary in 1776, Phi Beta Kappa is the oldest academic honor society in the United States, and gaining membership constitutes one of the most prestigious undergraduate awards.
The Brown chapter was founded in 1830 and is the seventh-oldest of the 270 existing chapters. Seniors who are inducted must have completed at least 28 courses — with at least 23 grades of A or S with distinction — in their first seven semesters at the University, with at least two-fifths of courses in the arts, humanities, “pure mathematics” or social sciences, according to the Brown chapter’s website.
