Delta Alpha Pi Honor Society

About

Delta Alpha Pi Honor Society recognizes the academic accomplishments of undergraduate and graduate students with disabilities, facilitates the development of leadership and advocacy skills, and provides opportunities for members to serve as mentors and role models.  The further purpose of this Society is to provide educational programming related to disability issues for the campus and community.

Delta – D for Disability, but also the triangle, a symbol of strength. Members of Delta Alpha Pi Honor Society demonstrate strength as leaders on campus to help break down the barriers of negativism. Also, they serve as mentors and role models for other students with disabilities.

 Alpha – A stands for Achievement. Alpha is the beginning, and academic achievement must come first. But A also stands for advocacy because students must advocate for themselves before they can advocate for others. Members of Delta Alpha Pi Honor Society enhance advocacy skills for themselves and for the rights of all individuals with disabilities to be included fully in society.

 Pi – P represents Pride, pride in academic achievement, and other accomplishments, not just as students with disabilities but as university community members. Pi is a mathematical symbol we learned to use in elementary arithmetic classes. So Pi is an appropriate symbol for education. Members of Delta Alpha Pi Honor Society participate in activities designed to educate the community and society regarding disability issues and the need to apply the principles of universal design in learning.
