PHI DELTA KAPPA FRATERNITY
A chapter of the national honorary educational fraternity of Phi Delta
Kappa has been organized in connection with the Department of Education.
Under the constitution of the fraternity, only those students are eligible to
membership who expect to make teaching or administration of schools a
permanent vocation, and who give evidence of superior qualities of character,
scholarship and initiative. The standards of scholarship governing election
to membership in the fraternity are similar to those prescribed for election
to Phi Beta Kappa.
The purpose of the fraternity as stated in its constitution is "to develop
among the students of Education at the University of Virginia the spirit of
`Research, Service and Leadership,"' and to endeavor by every worthy means
at its command to create and foster fellowship and true fraternalism among
the members of the society.
