Sigma Tau Delta
St. Mary’s maintains a chapter of Sigma Tau Delta, the international English honors society. Members have the opportunity to submit essays for publication in the Sigma Tau Delta journal, and to attend and present work at the annual convention. They are also eligible to apply for scholarships and internships (both undergraduate and graduate) offered through the society.
Requirements:
- Have completed at least 6 English classes at the 200-level or higher at SMC or CMRS (transfer work from other institutions does not apply)
- Have achieved a GPA of at least 3.84 in their 200-400 level English coursework at SMC (for this computation, CMRS grades do not apply).
Application Process:
Students interested in nominating themselves for membership should contact the Department Chair. Calls for self-nomination will be sent out early in each semester; new members will be inducted twice annually, in September and in April.
