Each
year the USC Chapter of the Phi Kappa Phi honors society recognizes outstanding
academic accomplishment by offering initiation to a select group of graduating
seniors, masters and doctoral students. Undergraduates and masters students are
offered initiation on the basis of their GPA; doctoral candidates must
be nominated by their academic units.
Phi Kappa Phi, the oldest interdisciplinary university honor
society at USC, seeks to recognize academic excellence at the doctoral level. We extend
an invitation to nominate premier doctoral students in your academic discipline
for this recognition. Should you wish to nominate a candidate or candidates,
they must have the following qualifications:
•
A letter of nomination from the chair of the department, graduate
advisor of the program, or chair of the dissertation committee stating that the
student ranks in the top five percent of the students with whom they have
worked.
•
Student must have passed the qualifying examination
Phi Kappa Phi will invite those students who have been
nominated to the initiation ceremony and to the reception immediately following
the ceremony in Queen’s Court (area outside Bing Theatre).
Nominations should be submitted by 12 p.m. on Friday, April 5th, 2013, to Linda Bazilian who will forward to Dr. Fliegel by the 4 PM deadline. For each nominee, please include the completed
nomination form and letter of nomination.
Please note that undergraduate students and masters students
are automatically nominated for membership based on a qualifying grade point
average.
If you have any questions, please call Dr. Fliegel at
213-740-2961.
Thank you very much for helping us recognize our most
accomplished students.
