What is a Chapter Honor Member?
A chapter honor member is an outstanding individual that has made an impact in the field of Civil Engineering and the lives of students. In order to recognize prominent faculty, community members, and graduates, Chi Epsilon chapters can initiate Chapter Honor Members. These individuals must have exemplified the ideals of the Missouri S&T Chi Epsilon Chapter. They must also be approved by the Supreme Council. These members are initiated into the organization or elevated to this position if they are already members of the society.
