Phi Della Kappa I-II DELTA KAPPA is an honorary educational fraternity for men organized for the purpose of developing a more complete professional consciousness, social leader- ship, and productive scholarship among educators. It has existed as a national fraternity under its present organization since 1910. New York University is repre- sented by Rho Chapter, in which approximately four hundred members have been initiated since its inception. Of these, three hundred are active in the affairs of the Chapter. Membership is by invitation, and only those students whose achievements in the School of Education place them in the upper quartile are considered as candidates for membership. Because research is one of our guiding principles, nearly all members are carrying on investigations and experiments in the field of education. It is hoped that leaders will be developed in the various branches of education and that public school education will be promoted scientifically. To this end Rho Chapter offers an award of one hundred dollars each year to the member who in the opinion of the Chapter produces the best thesis. . ' Regular meetings are held monthly during the scholastic year, to which prominent educators are invited to address the Chapter and to present research problems in which they are interested. Dinners and social meetings are held at intervals. A news letter is published three times a year, which keeps the members outside the Metropolitan area in touch with the current activities.

To foster these ideals, chapters have been organized in all the important schools of education throughout the country. Rho chapter of N. Y. U. received its charter in 1925. Pi Lambda Theta is a closed sorority in that membership is by invitation only. This organization numbers 196 members, who represent various educational fields.
