Glen Oaks establishes new Honor Society chapter

Glen Oaks Community College last week held its inaugural ceremony inducting 18 members into the newly established Delta Rho Chapter of Epsilon Pi Tau, the International Honor Society for Professions in Technology.
Epsilon Pi Tau is 81 years old and promotes excellence in academics, service, and research.
As with all honor societies, EPT is dedicated to honoring high academic performance, according to Glen Oaks President David Devier.
While the original development of EPT was focused on a somewhat narrow group of college programs, today the focus is on recognizing all programs and professions that utilize technology in their training and work, he added.
Devier said academic recognition for students in career programs is valuable and he has been instrumental in starting Epsilon Pi Tau chapters at each of his former institutions.
To commemorate the installation of the Delta Rho Chapter, a ceremonial oak tree was planted between the main entrance and the student suites.
