INTERNATIONAL SOCIAL SCIENCE REVIEW: CALL FOR BOOK REVIEW EDITORSDo you know about Pi Gamma Mu's academic journal? The International Social Science Review has been in continuous publication since 1924, making it the oldest social sciences journal in continuous publication in North America. |
TOO MUCH KNOWLEDGE TO FIT INTO THREE ISSUESThe International Social Science Review will now be published not three times per year—but four! We have been receiving such a high volume of quality research papers that the Board of Trustees of Pi Gamma Mu authorized an additional issue of the journal beginning this year. |

ACHS MEMBERSHIP PROTECTS THE LEGITIMACY OF HONOR SOCIETIESPi Gamma Mu is one of 70 members of the Association of College Honor Societies (ACHS), which is the authority on standards and definitions for the honor society movement. ACHS has stepped up efforts to alert the higher education community to the standards of traditional honor societies. In contrast, some new so-called honor societies exist online and allow self-nomination, accepting fees with no questions asked. If in doubt about an organization, you can check out the ACHS Web site (www.achshonor.org) for the list of honor societies that are members. |
