CONGRATULATIONS, STAR CHAPTERS!

The Pi Gamma Mu Board of Trustees and staff wish to congratulate and thank the 2016-17 Star Chapters for their dedication and success in increasing their chapter's number of new initiates by 20% or more as compared to the 2015-16 academic year.  Join this elite group by increasing your chapter's membership in 2017-18!

Increasing your chapter's membership helps Pi Gamma Mu accomplish its mission to encourage and recognize superior scholarship by extending the benefits of membership to more eligible students.  It is the collection of the lifetime membership fees from new members that sustains Pi Gamma Mu and we ask for your continued support in this area.  Increasing membership will also benefit more of the high performing students at your school with opportunities for scholarships, publications, networking, and more.  Increase your chapter's number of new initiates by 20% or more as compared to the previous academic year and we will send you a Pi Gamma Mu Star plaque and will recognize your chapter in the Pi Gamma Mu Newsletter and on our website.  Our fiscal year ends on August 31.  The Star Chapter program was started in 2014-15.
