THE PURPOSE OF THE HONOR SOCIETY IS:
- to award permanent recognition of your excellence in the field of history
- to bring teachers and students together intellectually and socially
- to offer presentations on carrers for the history major
- to present lectures on a variety of topics of history
- to inform members of meetings and publications through newsletters
and journal of the society, The Historiam
Become a published author:
There are two ways to participate in Phi Alpha Theta's journal The Historian and
add a publication to your resume. The first is to submit an article for publication.
Article submissions should address a topic that appeals to a broad, non-specialist
audience and have less than 6000 words, exclusive of bibliographical information. The
second way is to volunteer to write a book review. The Historian has an extensive
book review section in each edition and students are encouraged to volunteer as reviewers.
Students may apply to be a reviewer by contacting the book review editor, Richard F.
Spall, Slocum Hall-Suite 337, Ohio Wesleyan University, Delaware, OH 43015. Book reviewers
are not paid but do receive a copy of the book reviewed.
The "new" Phi Alpha Theta:
Phi Alpha Theta has a new executive director, under whose leadership the executive
committee and the organization as a whole are redirecting funds to students, in the form
of awards and scholarships. We hope that translates into greater benefits for our chapter
and individual members.
