Golden Key International Honour Society
October 23rd, 2008
This past summer, American Public University System established a chapter of the Golden Key International Honour Society. The Society was founded in 1977 with the intention of recognizing high-achieving students from around the world and across all academic disciplines for their academic excellence. Offering membership to only the top fifteen percent of college and university sophomores, juniors, seniors, and grad students, an invitation to become a member of Golden Key is a laudable distinction.
Since its inception some three decades ago, Golden Key now has close to 400 chapters worldwide containing some 1.8 million members and more than 8,000 honorary members including former U.S. President Ronald Reagan; Anglican Archbishop Emeritus of Cape Town, Reverend Desmond M. Tutu; and, Nobel Laureate and author, Elie Wiesel.
