University of Michigan-Dearborn Establishes Chapter of Chi Alpha Sigma
UM-Dearborn has been accepted into the National College Athlete Honor Society
DEARBORN, Mich. – The University of Michigan-Dearborn has been accepted into the National College Athlete Honor Society as the Michigan Lambda Chapter of Chi Alpha Sigma (XAΣ). The society recognizes student-athletes from accredited four-year NCAA, NAIA, USCAA, or NCCAA institutions who excel in both the classroom and competition.
Chi Alpha Sigma was founded in 1996 by then-DePauw University head football coach Nick Mourouzis. His goal was to provide outstanding student-athletes an opportunity to connect within a fraternal association that aligns their educational and athletic successes for a lifetime.
To be inducted into Chi Alpha Sigma, a student-athlete must attend a four-year accredited college or university that is a member of the NCAA, NAIA, USCAA, or NCCAA. The honoree also must achieve at least junior academic standing by the fifth semester or seventh quarter, as determined by the certifying institution, and must have completed a minimum cumulative grade-point average of 3.5 (on a 4.0 scale).
Amy Proctor will serve as an advisor for the University of Michigan Dearborn's chapter of Chi Alpha Sigma. The university will hold its first induction ceremony during the 2024-25 academic year.
