Indianapolis, IN (December 2012) — The IUPUI Chapter of Tau Sigma National Honor Society recently held their inaugural induction ceremony welcoming thirty new members into the organization. A number of guests, faculty, and staff were also in attendance to show their support of the students’ accomplishments and to support the choice they had made in joining.

The program featured a brief message of encouragement by Dr. Mary Fisher, Associate Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs. Fisher emphasized the importance of the students’ commitment to both IUPUI and Tau Sigma and reiterated the importance of success and engagement both in and out of the classroom.
