Honored to be 100
Touro College of Pharmacy Students are Inducted Into the Rho Chi Honor Society
Last year Touro College of Pharmacy graduated it’s first-class and was accredited by ACPE, both prerequisites to be inducted as members of the prestigious pharmacy academic honor society, Rho Chi. This year, Touro College of Pharmacy became the 100th active member of Rho Chi, with the forming of their chapter, Delta Nu. Forty-five students were inducted as the newest members of the Delta Nu Chapter.
Dr. Karl Fiebelkorn, Region I Councilor of the Rho Chi Society, installed the chapter: “The vision of the Society is to instill in its members, the desire to pursue intellectual excellence and critical inquiry to advance the Pharmacy profession. By striving to fulfill this vision, Rho Chi has become a well-recognized symbol of academic excellence. Today, as you join our ranks, you not only accept the honor and privilege of Rho Chi membership, but also, you dedicate yourself to a lifetime of commitment to the Society and its values.”
