Sigma Delta Pi inducts seven students at UVa-Wise

Sigma Delta Pi inducted seven new members into the National Spanish Honor Society this spring at The University of Virginia’s College at Wise.

The society serves to recognize outstanding students in the fields of Spanish language, civilization and literature. Members must have completed three years of college-level Spanish, including at least one course of Hispanic literature and culture.

Since the Society’s founding in 1919, members also have been expected to be highly involved in promoting the language outside the classroom while maintaining a minimum 3.0 grade point average in Spanish.

Upsilon Lambda, the UVa-Wise chapter of the society, was installed in 1999.

Sigma Delta Pi inductees for the 2007-2008 academic year are:

Clintwood
Steven Davis
Olga Hayes
Casey Zaczek

Dale City
Inmar Romero

Pound
Julie Shortt

Williamsburg
Marshell Bradley

Wise
Joy Bryant

The only branch campus of the University of Virginia, UVa-Wise is ranked among the nation’s top ten public liberal arts colleges by U.S. News and World Report. UVa-Wise offers Virginia's only undergraduate degree in software engineering, among 28 other degrees and professional programs in the liberal arts tradition of Thomas Jefferson.
