Rebecca C. Dean of Ellicott City Named to Phi Eta Sigma at Washington and Lee University

2013 May 3

Rebecca C. Dean of Ellicott City, MD, a member of the class of 2015 at Washington and Lee University, was recently inducted into Phi Eta Sigma National Honor Society, which is limited to students who complete the first term of their first year with superior academic records.

To be eligible for Phi Eta Sigma, a student must be in the top 20 percent of the class at the end of his or her first year. Seventy nine W&L students were initiated at a ceremony held the first night of W&L's 2013 Reunion Weekend in May.

"The quality and caliber of our student profile continues to improve and the academic accomplishments of the first year class are very impressive. Many of these students will obtain further academic accolades and even graduate fellowships as they progress through their undergraduate years at Washington and Lee," said Jason Rodocker, assistant dean for first-year experience, and adviser to the W&L chapter of Phi Eta Sigma.
