Sigma Iota Rho : ウィキペディア英語版 | Sigma Iota Rho Sigma Iota Rho (ΣΙΡ) is a collegiate honor society for international studiesrecognized by the International Studies Association. The purpose of ΣΙΡ is to promote and reward scholarship and service among students and faculty in higher education so as to foster creative performance and integrity in the conduct of world affairs. Its members are predominantly advanced undergraduates (juniors and seniors) who have demonstrated exceptional academic performance and engagement in international affairs. These individuals are guided by faculty advisors from over 140 colleges and universities with established chapters. ==Founding== Sigma Iota Rho was founded on May 9, 1984, on the initiative of scholars and practitioners who sought a national platform to recognize excellence in international affairs and foster values in the field. Aptly, the Greek letters representative of the society are: sigma (Σ) denotes "synesis," meaning "prudence"; iota (I) for ideodoi, "ideals"; and rho (P) for rhomi, "power." Among the founders of ΣΙΡ was the late-Dr. William C. Olson, Ph.D., then-dean of the School of International Service at American University, who served as its first president. Also among the group was Theodore Couloumbis, Ph.D., who determined the society's Greek letters and identity. Currently, the president and national director of SIR is Frank Plantan,Ph.D., co-director of the University of Pennsylvania's International Relations Program.
