Alpha Beta Kappa

Two Fridays ago (whew, am I behind!), we had our Inaugural Induction Ceremony for Alpha Beta Kappa, a National Honor Society.  In order for a student to be inducted, he or she must maintain at least a 3.8 GPA and have completed at least 75% of his or her program.

We inducted eleven students into ABK, all of whom were women, though it is open to men as well.

*Warning: Soapbox moment*
So for all of you so-called experts who tell our young women that they aren't as good as men in math and science, bite me.  Every single one of our inductees majored in either math (Business Accounting) or science (Medical Specialties).
Congrats to all of the young women who worked unbelievably hard for this accomplishment, all while attending an accelerated program, which brings many people to their knees.  You worked hard and deserve the honor; I'm unwaveringly proud of you.

:( Some of the inductees couldn't make it to the ceremony.
