P sigma alpha ■ossible candidates for the office of the President of the United States or Secretary of State are the members of Pi Sigma Alpha, national political science honor society. Student membership in the society is based upon scholastic achievement. This fraternity was founded as a national honorary organization at the University of Texas in 1920. The founders sensed a need for an organization that would bring persons especially inter- ested in the study of government into closer association with one another for their mutual benefit. Today Pi Sigma Alpha is recognized by leaders in the educational world and in political science for the effective accomplishment of its objectives. At Utah State, the fraternity is composed of individuals keenly interested in attempting to increase their awareness of the political problems facing the world and the United States. 25
