What is Delta Alpha Pi International Honor Society?
Today there are 27 active chapters of Delta Alpha Pi International Honor Society at colleges and universities in 15 different states from coast to coast. Delta Alpha Pi International Honor Society, the first of its kind in the nation, was established in 2004 at East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania specifically to recognize the academic accomplishments of college and university students with disabilities. What do the Greek letters and the organization stand for? The three Greek letters in Delta Alpha Pi have specific meaning: * Delta – D for Disability, but also the triangle, symbol of strength * Alpha – A stands for Achievement. Alpha is the beginning, and academic achievement must come first. But A also stands for advocacy because students must advocate for themselves before they can advocate for others. * Pi – P represents Pride, pride in academic achievement and in other accomplishments, not just as students with disabilities, but as members of the university community.
