Students, faculty, family members and friends packed the Ford Center on the Ole Miss campus on Sunday, October 16 for the 57th year of Phi Kappa Phi induction ceremonies.  This fall set a record with more than 230 inductees joining the national honor society, which is the only organization to recognize academic excellence and outstanding character in students across all disciplines, including undergraduate, graduate and professional programs.

The ceremony was marked by remarks from political science professor Dr. Marvin King, and Phi Kappa Phi national fellowship winner, Meghan Wagner — an Ole Miss pharmacy student.  Chancellor Jeffrey Vitter was there to congratulate the society’s new members, as well.

Earlier this month, on Oct. 12, the University of Mississippi Medical Center inducted 38 outstanding scholars into the society in a ceremony on the medical campus.

Congratulations to all new and current Phi Kappa Phi members for their superior scholarship and good character.  Visit  www.phikappaphi.org for more information.
