Best Chapter Awards
Pi Sigma Alpha awards up to six Best Chapter Awards in each of four enrollment-level categories annually. The awards come with a $500 cash prize for the chapter, and an additional cash prize of $200 for the advisors of the winning chapters for their service. The selection is based on chapters’ annual reports to the national office, and other evidence of extraordinary levels of activity.
