Twenty-eight undergraduate and graduate students were inducted into the Sigma chapter of the prestigious Alpha Phi Sigma honor society on March 28 in the Marshall Student Center.
The induction ceremony featured a welcome address by Colby Valentine, PhD, co-advisor of the honor society; presentations from the Alpha Phi Sigma board members; and a recitation of the oath led by co-advisor Amber Oderinde, MS.
