ACHS MEMBERSHIP PROTECTS THE LEGITIMACY OF HONOR SOCIETIES
Pi Gamma Mu
is one of 68 members of the Association of College Honor Societies (ACHS), which is the authority on
standards and definitions for the honor society movement. ACHS has stepped up efforts to alert the higher education community
to the standards of traditional honor societies. In contrast, some new so-called honor societies exist online and allow
self-nomination, accepting fees with no questions asked. If in doubt about an organization, you can check out the ACHS
Web site list of honor societies that are members.
HONOR CORDSWith graduation on the horizon for many Pi Gamma Mu members, don't forget to order your honor cords. They are royal blue and white twisted nylon cords with royal blue tassels. To get your graduation cords, send a check or money order for $15 (which includes postage and handling) to the Pi Gamma Mu headquarters at 1001 Millington, Suite B, Winfield, KS 67156 or phone headquarters (620-221-3128) and give us your credit card number; we will put them in the mail right away. |
