Pi Sigma Alpha

Eligible department majors and minors can be part of Pi Sigma Alpha, the national political science honors society. Hope College's chapter is known as Eta Kappa and was chartered in 1975.

The Purposes of Pi Sigma Alpha are:

1. To promote worthwhile curricular and extracurricular activities related to Political Science;
2. To stimulate scholarship and intelligent interest in Political Science;
3. To stimulate active interest in serving as productive citizens in a working representative democracy;
4. To support the activities of the Eta Kappa Chapter on Hope College's campus.

Qualifications for Membership

The application process for Pi Sigma Alpha begins in the fall, when eligible students are notified. Members then pay a $40 lifetime membership fee to the national office.

The advisor to the Eta Kappa chapter of Pi Sigma Alpha is currently Dr. Jeffrey Polet. Please contact him with any questions.
