Delta Phi Alpha is the National German Honor Society at the collegiate level with more than 330 chapters nationwide. The German faculty of the Department nominates students for membership into Delta Phi Alpha. The initiation ritual takes place during the Awards Ceremony at the end of the Spring semester. This year over 20 students will be initiated at the University of Arizona, marking a new record of Honorary German Students. Please come and join us during this exciting and important event. Family, friends, and classmates are cordially invited.
Delta Phi Alpha mission: "The National German Honor Society, Delta Phi Alpha, seeks to recognize excellence in the study of German and to provide an incentive for higher scholarship. The Society aims to promote the study of the German language, literature and civilization and endeavors to emphasize those aspects of German life and culture which are of universal value and which contribute to man's eternal search for peace and truth."
This is the time of the year once again when we like to invite undergraduate, graduate students, and faculty to self-nominate for membership in the German Honor Society, Delta Phi Alpha. Please help us to spread the word and inform all your students who would be eligible. This invitation also extends to faculty who might not yet be members! Deadline is March 23rd.
