Sigma Tau Delta Photo The book sale involved members Marjorie Eisen, Julia Ko- chi, and Kristi Roach. Sigma Tau Delta Photo ENGLISH Involvement of society high Sigma Tau Delta, the International English Honor Society, is a member of the Association for College Honor Societies and was founded in 1924 at the Dakota Weslayen University. Sigma Tau Delta's purpose is to encourage the appreciation of literature and the practice of creative and critical writing. The Epsilon Phi Chapter of Sigma Tau Delta, which was established at the University of Houston- University Park in the Fall of 1986, recognizes the outstanding collegiate achievements of English majors and minors at the University of Houston-University Park. During Fall 1988, Epsilon Phi members organized and presented a faculty/student discussion entitled "A Women's Studies Program: Could It Benefit the University of Houston?" and sent much needed reading materials to the Ramah Elementary School library in Ramah, New Mexico, and to the Foreign Lan guages Department at Anhui Normal University in China. During Spring, 1989, Epsilon Phi sent a team to the Campus College Bowl, held a book sale to raise funds to purchase American literature texts at M. D. Anderson Library through the Khristen Shepler/Philip Stevens Memorial Fund, and met with Feminist critic Jane Marcus, Deconstructionist critic Christopher Norris, and J; ne Austen scholar, John Halperin. Faculty sponsor Lois Zarnora presented Stephen Bonario with the Brazos Bookstore Academic Ex- cellence Award and Pauline Hewlett with the Katherine C. Powell Leadership Award during Honors Week. Throughout the 1988- 89 school year, Epsilon Phi conducted two membership drives, organized two induction ceremonies, and held five bake sales. The official colors of Sigma Tau Del- ta are cardinal and black; the flower is the red rose; the motto is "Sincerity, Truth, Design." ► Kristi Roach Sigma Tau Delta members include: Victoria Bouronde, Nelda Nutt Mary Gilbert; second row:Barbara Nytes-Baron, Edna Bocek, Wendy Paris, Sharon Finley; third row:Kristi Roach, Marjorie Eisen, Julia Kochi; front row:Wanda Langford, Catherine Curren, Pauline Hewlett, and Stephen Bonario.
