P huck Phi Beta Kappa. I could never understand while liberal arts oriented ILRies, Aggies, or PAM majors couldn’t be inducted into PBK.

Yeah, I’m just bitter. But there are honor societies for every college. Not to mention a lot of University wide honors (Merrill Scholars, etc.) and individual honors for top essays, outstanding students in selected majors, etc. I won a prize for the best statistics student in my graduating class, and I’m currently working with some alums to endow a prize for best student-written paper in the field of labor economics.
