Five education students at Sul Ross State University were inducted into the Zeta Delta Chapter of Kappa Delta Pi International Honor Society during a ceremony held May 8.
The new members include Ethan Flori, Taylor Moore, Madison Owen, Estaban Ramons Jr., and Nicolas Westerlink.
Kappa Delta Pi was founded in 1911 at the University of Illinois to promote excellence in education and foster fellowship among individuals dedicated to teaching. The organization draws its name from the Greek words for knowledge, duty, and power.
With a legacy spanning more than a century, the honor society now includes over 1.2 million initiated members worldwide. Notable members include Albert Einstein, George Washington Carver, Eleanor Roosevelt, and Margaret Mead.
The mission of Kappa Delta Pi is to sustain an honored community of diverse educators by advancing excellence in scholarship, leadership, and service. Its vision is to support educators as leaders in improving education for global citizenship.
