(From Southern News Service)

JOPLIN, MO (SNS) – A total of 75 students were recently initiated into the Missouri Iota Chapter of Alpha Chi, a national scholastic honor society, at Missouri Southern State University during ceremonies on the MSSU.
 Introductions and remarks were given by Dr. Pat Lipira, Interim Vice President for Academic Affairs at Missouri Southern, during the Oct. 27 ceremony.
 Welcome remarks were made by Whitney Triplett of the Student Chapter of Alpha Chi.
 The address for the induction was given by Dr. Alan Marble, Missouri Southern Interim President.

To be eligible for the organization, juniors or seniors must have a cumulative grade point average of 3.7 or above.
 Alpha Chi is a coeducational society whose purpose is to promote academic excellence and exemplary character among college and university students and to honor those who achieve such distinction. Its name derives from the initial letters of the Greek words Aletheia, meaning truth, and Xarakter, meaning character.

Students joining Alpha Chi can expect several benefits of membership. Each inductee receives a recognition pin and a membership certificate. Each member is eligible to participate in the varying activities of the society.
Alpha Chi has existed since 1922 and has been affiliated with the Association of College Honor Societies since 1955.
