We are pleased to announce the following new chapters that have been added to the Phi Eta Sigma family:

The College of Charleston is the oldest institution of higher education in the state of South Carolina and the thirteenth oldest in the United States. The College of Charleston, founded in 1770, is a public liberal arts college and is controlled by a Board of Trustees. The founders of the college included three signers of The Declaration of Independence and three fathers of the United States Constitution.

Dr. John H. Newell, Director of the Honors Program and professor of history chartered the Phi Eta Sigma chapter consisting of 298 members on the College of Charleston campus on February 20, 2007. Phi Eta Sigma joins Omicron Delta Kappa, Phi Kappa Phi, Psi Chi, and Phi Alpha Theta on the Charleston campus. Dr. Newell is a Phi Eta Sigma member from the University of Georgia.

Southwest Baptist University is a Christ-centered, caring, academic community preparing students to be servant leaders in a global society. The university is a four-year liberal arts university established in 1878 at Lebanon, Missouri. The university moved to Bolivar, Missouri, in 1879.

The university offers bachelors and masters degrees in numerous fields of study, and students are served by more than four hundred faculty and staff members. The president of the university is Dr. C. Pat Taylor. Ms. Allison Langford, instructor in the University Success Center, installed the chapter on April 26, 2007.

In 119 years, the sweep of history has carried Morehead State University and its predecessor institution, The Morehead Normal School, from one makeshift classroom to the high-tech world of internet-based classes and a radio telescope/space tracking system, which reaches literally from a campus ridgetop to the stars.

Today, Morehead State University enrolls more than 9,000 students from 100 Kentucky counties, 42 states, and 37 nations. Dr. Philip Krummrich, chairperson of the Foreign Language and Philosophy Department, chartered the Phi Eta Sigma chapter on May 5, 2007.

Founded in 1847 as The Free Academy, The City College of New York (CCNY) was one of the great experiments of the young American democracy. Today, the oldest of the eleven senior city colleges is really a small university with four renowned professional schools and an outstanding College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. The City College president is Dr. Gregory H. Williams.

The CCNY chapter was chartered on May 10, 2007. The chartering leadership was provided by Michael. P. Smallis, Division of Student Affairs, which falls under the umbrella of the Finley Student Activity Center and the Office of Co-Curricular Life. The center touches the lives of more than one hundred thirty student organizations.
