Congratulations to Timothy Natcher Pruett who was elected to the Beta Chapter of Virginia of Phi Beta Kappa this week. Natcher is a third year student.  He is a Classics major with a concentration in Latin as well as a double major in Media Studies and an Economics minor.

As the oldest and most distinguished honor society in the country, Phi Beta Kappa offers membership to less than one percent of all undergraduates.  Many of the leading figures in American history and culture have begun their careers with election to the society, including seventeen presidents of the United States.  As a result, membership is a remarkable accomplishment, both for the student who achies it and the faculty and staff whose support and guidance has led to this milestone.
