SAULT STE. MARIE, Mich. – Lake Superior State University (LSSU) has been accepted into the National College Athlete Honor Society as the Michigan Pi Chapter of Chi Alpha Sigma (XAΣ), which recognizes student-athletes from accredited four-year institutions who are members of an association or organization that promotes academic achievement and varsity level athletics competition while holding commitment to the principles of integrity, sportsmanship, and overall development of their student-athletes. Chi Alpha Sigma is a certified member of the Association of College Honor Societies.
Chi Alpha Sigma was founded in 1996 by then DePauw University head football coach Nick Mourouzis. His goal was to provide outstanding student-athletes with an opportunity to become connected within a fraternal association that aligns their educational and athletic successes for a lifetime.
In order to be inducted into Chi Alpha Sigma, a student-athlete must achieve junior or senior academic standing at their institution, complete four full time semesters or six quarters of college course work after high school, as determined by the certifying institution, and must have achieved a minimum cumulative grade-point average of a 3.5 (on a 4.0 scale).
