The University’s Iota Nu Chapter of Sigma Theta Tau International, the international honor society for nursing, received the Chapter Key Award for a second time at the 2009 Biennial Convention, Dean Linda Klotz said in a recent press release.

The award, established in 1991, honors chapters that excel in chapter-related activities, including membership recruitment, retention and professional and leadership development, according to the release.

Sigma Theta Tau International granted a charter to the Iota Nu Chapter in March 1988. Chapter meetings are held at various locations in East Texas throughout the year and feature respected nurse scholars as speakers. The meetings offer an opportunity to interact with nurses from different work settings and specialty areas, the release said.
