Nearly 70 Indiana University Kokomo students and faculty were recognized for academic achievement in fields ranging from sociology to nursing, and from communication to business, with selection for national honor societies.
Two local students were inducted into the Beta Gamma Sigma honorary for business. They are Katlin Noel Garner of Noblesville and Parker J. Kalis of Westfield. Both are undergraduates and must be in the top 10 percent of their class to be inducted.
The School of Nursing inducted 16 students into the Alpha chapter of Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing. Locally, Alena Nusbaum of Carmel and Kelly Jean Jones of Fishers were inducted as new members. Students must meet rigorous standards for inclusion, such as a program grade-point average of at least 3.5 on a 4.0 scale, rank in the top 25 percent of the graduating class, and meet the expectation of academic integrity.
