JHU chapter of Phi Beta Kappa to induct new members

The annual induction of new members into Phi Beta Kappa will be held at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, May 26, in Hodson Hall Auditorium on the Homewood campus. Students and faculty members who have previously been elected to Phi Beta Kappa by any university are welcome to attend (RSVP to Linda M. Pressley at linda.pressley@jhu.edu).

Juniors elected to the society generally rank around the top 2 percent and seniors in the top 8 percent to 10 percent of their respective classes, not counting engineering students or those previously elected. The nominating committee looks for evidence of outstanding intellectual achievement and breadth of learning in addition to a high cumulative grade point average.

Undergraduates attending SAIS are eligible for election and are judged on the same basis as the students completing a regular four-year sequence at Homewood. The Johns Hopkins chapter of Phi Beta Kappa does permit some doctoral students to be admitted as well.
