Chi Alpha Epsilon
Honor Society
INTRODUCTION
All Academic Success Program students have an opportunity to join a distinguished academic honor society while attending Shippensburg University. Chi Alpha Epsilon (XAE), Gamma Chapter, was established at Shippensburg University in March 1993. Initially, eight students and one honorary member were inducted. Honor society induction ceremonies occur each semester as new students become eligible. As of May, 1999 a total of 21 students have been inducted into the XAE Honor Society. Dr. Anthony F. Ceddia, President of Shippensburg University, was also inducted as an honorary member. He has the distinction of being the first president from the State System of Higher Education to receive such an honor.
PURPOSE
Chi Alpha Epsilon was formed to recognize the academic achievements of students admitted to colleges and universities through non-traditional criteria. Its purpose is to promote continued high academic standards, foster increased communication among its members and honor academic excellence for those students admitted to college via developmental programs. The involvement of eligible alumni enables networking for members. Programs sponsored by the society encourage other students toward this accomplishment.
MEMBERSHIP
Membership in Chi Alpha Epsilon, Gamma Chapter is offered to eligible Shippensburg University Academic Success Program students.
