Benefits of Membership
Membership in an honor socieity is a worthy distinction in itself, and
as a measure of academic achievement can provide a tangible advantage in
a competitive world. All Pi Sigma Alpha members, receive a certificate
of membership and permanent enrollment in the society's membership rolls,
maintained by the national office. Upon request, the national office will
provide letters verifying membership to prospective employers or graduate
schools. Becasue Pi Sigma Alpha is a member of the Association of College
Honor Socieites, the United States Office of Personnel Management guarantees
a higher entry-level grade to Pi Sigma Alpha members entering government
service. Members are entitled to wear the Pi Sigma Alpha key at any time
or the medallion with cap and gown at graduation and on other official
occasions.
Pi Sigma Alpha gives students the opportunity for valuable administrative
experience as chapter officers or organizers of chapter activities. Chapters
can compete for the Chapter Activities Grants awarded each year by the
National Office. Members are also eligible to compete for the Pi Sigma
Alpha Graduate Scholarship, the Graduate and Undergraduate Best Paper Awards,
and a one-year student membership in the American Political Sceince Association,
funded by the national office for one student selected by each chapter
each year.
