More than 500 students will be invited to join the UNLV chapter of Phi Kappa Phi honor society this year.

The top 10 percent of the senior class and the top 5 percent of the junior class will receive invitations to join this national honor society. A minimum grade point average of 3.7 is required.

The induction ceremony for the new members will take place at 6:30 p.m. April 10 in the Richard Tam Alumni Center.

Those students invited to join will receive letters this month from Phi Kappa Phi informing them of their selection and asking them to respond to the invitation.

Students choosing to accept membership must fill out the required forms and submit them to Brent Mangus, associate professor of kinesiology, by the date indicated on the form.

UNLV students and faculty who joined Phi Kappa Phi at other universities are encouraged to take this opportunity to transfer their membership to the UNLV chapter.
