Election to Phi Beta Kappa, the nation's oldest academic honor society, marks a distinctive milestone in the academic journeys of Dartmouth students. The Alpha of New Hampshire chapter inducted a new cohort of 21 students at its Nov. 4 meeting in Collis Common Ground, continuing a Dartmouth tradition that dates to 1787.
"Your election is in recognition of your outstanding attainments in scholarly activities, and good moral character, quintessential qualifications for membership in a society emphasizing academic excellence and the pursuit of truth," Chapter President Andrew Samwick, the Sandra L. and Arthur L. Irving '72a P'10 Professor of Economics, told the new inductees.
Deborah Hogan, the Thomas S. Kosasa Professor of Microbiology and Immunology at the Geisel School of Medicine, and contemporary dancer, choreographer, and educator Steve Rooks were elected as honorary members at the meeting. Roger Ulrich, emeritus professor of classics, was elected as an alumni member.
