Welcome

Alpha Kappa Mu Honor Society is a general scholarship honor society open to junior and senior men and women in all academic areas who meet the requirements of the society.

Our purpose is to promote high scholarship; to encourage sincere and zealous endeavor in all fields of knowledge and service; to cultivate a high order of personal living; and to develop an appreciation for scholarship and scholarly endeavor in others.

A message from our President.

Greetings and Happy New Year!

It is my honor and my great pleasure to serve as your National President during a year of such historic change.

These are times of challenge and opportunity for our organization, our nation, and our world, despite the difficult economic news. As members of Alpha Kappa Mu, you are among our best and brightest, and you will be our agents of change. You are among the standard bearers of educational achievement, and you are the leaders of tomorrow.

I encourage you to consider making community service a significant part of your life after graduation. We are challenged by the tenets of Alpha Kappa Mu to live a life of enlightened service to mankind. Never has that challenge been as important as now.

If you are considering graduate or professional education, please remember that the Gore-Crawford Scholarship supports two deserving members each year as they pursue graduate study. And whatever path to lifelong learning you choose, remember that membership in Alpha Kappa Mu is more than a reward for past achievement – it is a challenge to climb higher.

I look forward to seeing all of you at the 60th National Convention and 11th Biennial Meeting, April 1-4 2009. Our host chapters are Kappa Upsilon at Alcorn State University, and Mu Delta at Mississippi Valley State University. Thank you for your continued support of Alpha Kappa Mu.

Dr. Ann Harris, National President
Dean, College of Arts and Letters
