Phi Sigma Tau
Phi Sigma Tau (ΦΣΤ, or PST) is an international honor society for philosophers. Its essential purpose is to promote ties among philosophy departments in accredited institutions and students in philosophy nationally. In addition to providing a means of awarding distinction to students having high scholarship and interest in philosophy, Phi Sigma Tau also promotes interest in philosophy among the general collegiate public.
The current membership requirements are variable from chapter to chapter, but in general, undergraduate students are eligible for active membership if they have completed two semesters of college, rank in the upper 35% of their class, and have completed at least two semester courses in philosophy with an average overall grade which is greater than the second highest grade of the working scale.〔''Phi Sigma Tau Manual'', p. 7〕 The society also inducts graduate students, professors, and non-affiliated personnel.〔 There are currently 168 active chapters in the U.S. and Canada, with 31301 members.
==History==
The society was founded in 1930 at Muhlenberg College as "Alpha Kappa Alpha," with chapters in Pennsylvania and Maryland.〔''Phi Sigma Tau Manual'', p. 3〕 The society was incorporated as Phi Sigma Tau in 1955 and in 1958 the society was admitted to membership in the Association of College Honor Societies. In 1991 PST became an international society with the installation of its first Canadian chapter.〔
