Truman’s Rho Rho Chapter of Sigma Delta Pi, the National Collegiate Hispanic Honor Society, was named an “Honor Chapter” for its outstanding activities throughout 2025-26.
Each summer, the 640 chapters of Sigma Delta Pi nationwide are asked to submit an annual report detailing their numerous activities and projects from the academic year. Based on these reports, the National Executive Committee chooses approximately 10-15 “Honor Chapters” annually. This recognition is based upon the caliber of chapter projects that reflect the Sigma Delta Pi mission of honoring excellence in the study of the Spanish language, contributing to cultural understanding and upholding the goals of the society.
This is the 33rd consecutive year Truman has earned this prestigious distinction, which represents the longest continuous "Honor Chapter" status in the 107-year-history of Sigma Delta Pi. The first award was granted in 1993 under co-advisers Lucy Lee and Michael Buzan. Stacy Davis, associate professor of Spanish, director of second language instruction and Rho Rho's chapter advisor for 2025-26, was instrumental in earning this year’s national honor.
Founded in 1919 and with its national office at the College of Charleston in South Carolina, Sigma Delta Pi is also a member since 1966 of the Association of College Honor Societies, the nation’s only certifying agency for college and university honor societies.
