Lambda Pi Eta is the national honor society for college students pursuing studies in communication-related disciplines and the official honor society recognized by the National Communication Association. The purpose of Lambda Pi Eta is to recognize, foster, and reward outstanding scholastic achievement in the field of communication; stimulate interest in the field of communication; promote and encourage professional development among communication majors; provide an opportunity to discuss and exchange ideas in the field of communication; establish and maintain closer relationships between faculty and students; and explore options for graduate education in communication studies. The School of Communication founded Northwestern’s Pi Theta chapter in 2004; the chapter is devoted to fostering and supporting student-driven projects that build community within the school and that showcase communication students’ creative and academic work.
