Upsilon Delta, the Kilgore College chapter of Sigma Kappa Delta – the national English honor society for two-year colleges – has inducted 42 students qualifying for membership this spring.
Membership in SKD requires students to maintain a grade point average of a “B” in both English and overall coursework after completing at least 12 semester hours of study.
Bonnie Gale and Stephanie Laszik, English instructors, are co-sponsors of SKD at KC.
SKD, founded in 1966 at Northern Illinois University at DeKalb, Ill., is the only national organization that recognizes academic excellence in English for community college students.
The KC Upsilon Delta Chapter began in 2009 and fulfilled all the national requirements to become a distinguished Ivy Chapter.
The SKD chapter at KC extends membership invitations to eligible students each semester.
