Honorary Society

PI MU EPISLON

PME

In 1989 the Alpha Delta Chapter of Pi Mu Epsilon was established at Geneseo. Each year we induct our best students into this prestigious national honor society.

It was founded on May 25, 1914 at Syracuse University. The purpose of Pi Mu Epsilon is the promotion of scholarly activity in mathematics among the students in academic institutions and among staffs of qualified non-academic institutions.

Each spring, the Pi Mu Epsilon coordinator reviews the transcripts of current mathematics majors with sophomore standing, or above. Candidates must meet both internal standards of excellence and the nationally set criteria to be inducted.

Our Standards:

1. Sophomores: Completed Math 221, Math 222, Math 223, Math 233 and Math 239 (21 hours) and at least one 300- level elective. Straight A or one A-.

2. Juniors: Completed least three 300 level courses and maintained a 3.7 math gpa.

3. Seniors: 3.5 in upper division classes above the 222 level;

4. For all students: indication that the major that goes beyond the minimal requirements either in terms of course work, research, or service.

An induction ceremony, talk and reception are held for inductees, members and their families each spring.
