Tri-Alpha Honor Society inducts 2024 class

On April 22, the Student Success Center hosted its first ever induction ceremony for the newly created Tri-Alpha Honor Society, Eta Psi Chapter, at Penn State. Tri-Alpha’s mission is to encourage and reward academic excellence among first-generation college students pursuing an associate’s or bachelor’s degree in accredited institutions of higher learning.

Penn State University Park's induction class of 2024 included fifty-five students, five honorary inductees, and fourteen alumni.

While Dr. Neeli Bendapudi regrettably couldn’t be in attendance, she was able to send congratulations via video.

Congratulations to all Tri-Alpha members on their continued success! Learn more about Tri-Alpha at success.psu.edu.
