Humanities & Teacher Education

The Humanities and Teacher Education Division sponsors a chapter of Phi Alpha Theta, the international honor society in history.  Membership for faculty and students alike is a recognition of excellence in scholarship.  At its biennial convention, undergraduate and graduate students have the opportunity to meet distinguished historians and to present their own research papers.  Members also receive the society's journal, The Historian.

To find out more about the activities of Phi Alpha Theta, visit the official website at www.phialphatheta.org.

Membership requirements: Students must complete at least 12 semester hours in history.  They become eligible in their sophomore year

Students must have a GPA of 3.5.

Membership is not limited to history majors.
Initiation information: Invitations are sent to eligible candidates in January, and members are inducted in the spring.
