Muhlenberg College recently was accepted into Chi Alpha Sigma, the National College Athlete Honor Society.
Chi Alpha Sigma is the first national scholar-athlete society to honor collegiate student-athletes who have excelled in the classroom and in competition. Founded in 1996 by then DePauw University head football coach, Nick Mourouzis, Chi Alpha Sigma provides outstanding student-athletes an opportunity to become connected within a fraternal association that aligns their educational and athletic successes for a lifetime.
The College Committee on Fitness and Athletics, in coordination with Chi Alpha Sigma's membership guidelines, developed the following criteria for induction into Muhlenberg College's Alpha Lambda Chapter:
• Has achieved a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.5 at the time of the selection process and has been on the Dean's List for at least two semesters;
• Has earned one letter in a varsity intercollegiate sport;
• Has endorsements from his/her head coach; and
• Is of good moral character as determined by their endorsers and the Dean of Students.
Muhlenberg will hold an induction ceremony during Senior Week, and inductees will receive a cord to wear with their cap and gown at Commencement.
