This is an amazing honor to receive, and something that every student should be striving to get because it really holds a lot of merit, both in the academic and professional world. Inducted members have become leaders in just about every field imaginable, and the honor society has networking capabilities that will help its members soar and reach their highest potential in the field of their choosing.
