Baton Rouge, LA (10/07/2024) — The Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi-the nation's oldest and most selective collegiate honor society for all academic disciplines-today announced the recipients of a 2024 Love of Learning Award. The $1,000 awards were given to 200 Phi Kappa Phi members.
Love of Learning Awards are designed to help fund post-baccalaureate professional development for active Phi Kappa Phi members including graduate or professional studies, doctoral dissertations, continuing education, travel related to teaching and research, career development and more.
"Congratulations to the recipients of the Love of Learning Award. Their dedication to advancing their education and professional growth embodies the spirit of Phi Kappa Phi. We are proud to support their journeys as they continue to seek knowledge and make a meaningful impact." said the Society Executive Director and CEO, Dr. Bradley R. Newcomer.
Established in 2007, the Love of Learning Program gives 200 awards annually in support of post-baccalaureate professional development. The selection process for a Love of Learning Award is based on the applicant's academic achievement, campus and community service, intended use of award funds as it relates to academic and career goals, and a personal statement.
Since 1932, Phi Kappa Phi's award programs have recognized members and students on its chapter campuses for outstanding academic achievement. In addition to the Love of Learning Program, Phi Kappa Phi awards graduate and dissertation fellowships, study abroad grants, and grants for local, national and international literacy initiatives. Each year more than $1 million is awarded through programs.
