The Rho Chi Pharmacy Honor Society Xi Chapter in Chapel Hill held its annual induction ceremony on March 6, welcoming 30 new students into the prestigious organization.
Established in 1922, the Rho Chi Society seeks to advance pharmacy through sustained intellectual leadership. As the academic honor society in pharmacy, the Rho Chi Society works to encourage and recognize intellectual achievement; stimulate critical inquiry to advance pharmacy; contribute to the development of intellectual leaders; promote the highest ethical standards; and foster collaboration.
Membership in The Rho Chi Society is a privilege accorded to the few who distinguish themselves by their academic and professional achievements and who aspire to the mission and vision of the society.
“These outstanding students, academically, represent the top 20% of their class. They contribute to the School through tutoring and mentoring other students and actively participate in the School’s teaching, service and research mission,” said Robert Dupuis, Pharm.D., Xi Chapter faculty adviser.
Members may be elected as professional or graduate students in pharmacy, as members of faculties of schools and colleges of pharmacy, as alumni who distinguish themselves in the profession, or as honorary members by special action of the Society’s Executive Council.
