    Eden Prairie Local News (EPLN) is proud to periodically recognize Eden Prairie post-secondary students who are honored by the colleges and universities they attend.

    EPLN relies on schools to send us this information. If you don’t see your student’s school listed, please send your student’s name, the school’s name and location, award (e.g., dean’s list, graduation), year in school, and major, to editor@eplocalnews.org with the subject “On Campus.”

    Phi Kappa Phi Honor Society

    Keira Christensen of Eden Prairie was recently elected to membership into the Boise State University (Boise, Idaho) chapter of The Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi, the nation’s oldest and most selective all-discipline collegiate honor society.

    Christensen is among approximately 20,000 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 percent of seniors and 7.5 percent of juniors are eligible for membership. Graduate students in the top 10 percent 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. Today, the Society has chapters on more than 300 campuses in the United States, its territories and the Philippines. Its mission is to “cultivate a community that celebrates and advances the love of learning.”
