Sellers, Inducted into The Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi
Kenzie Sellers of Clinton was recently initiated into The Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi, the nation’s oldest and most selective all-discipline collegiate honor society.
Sellers was initiated at Oklahoma State University.
Sellers is among approximately 25,000 students, faculty, professional staff and alumni to be initiated into Phi Kappa Phi each year.
Membership is by invitation only and requires nomination and approval by a chapter. Only the top 10% of seniors and 7.5% of juniors are eligible for membership.
Graduate students in the top 10% of the number of candidates for graduate degrees may also qualify, as do faculty, professional staff and alumni who have achieved scholarly distinction.
Phi Kappa Phi was founded in 1897 under the leadership of undergraduate student Marcus L. Urann, who had a desire to create a different kind of honor society, one that recognized excellence in all academic disciplines.
The society has chapters on 325 campuses in the United States, its territories and the Philippines. Its mission is to recognize and promote academic excellence in all fields of higher education and “to engage the community of scholars in service to others.”
