The National Political Science Honors Society awarded Fresno State’s Alpha Delta Beta chapter of Pi Sigma Alpha a Best Chapter Award for 2022-23. This is the third year in a row the chapter has received this award. Out of more than 850 chapters, only four received this honor.
Best Chapter Awards are intended to recognize local chapters that are particularly active in their institutions and communities and embody the society’s mission to stimulate scholarship and intellectual interest in political science. Dr. Everett A. Vieira III serves as faculty adviser to the chapter and was recognized for his extraordinary leadership and dedication to the students who are members of the chapter.
The selection committee said it was impressed with the chapter’s achievements in developing activities supporting student civic engagement and community service, especially given the significant challenges faculty and students around the world continue to face post-COVID.
The award includes a cash prize of $500 for the chapter and an additional $200 for the adviser for their service.
