Chatfield College Inducts 27 Students into Honor Societies
In a combined ceremony, Chatfield College recently inducted six members into the Julia Chatfield Honor Society and 23 members into the Phi Theta Kappa Society.
Named in honor of Julia Chatfield, OSU, foundress of the Ursulines of Brown County, the Julia Chatfield Honor Society was formed to honor students who have demonstrated personal integrity through exemplary scholarship, service to others, and moral or spiritual values.

Those students chosen for induction in 2017 include Abigail N. Bedard, Emanuela L. Blendea, Maria Bockhorst, Grant L. Brown, Courtney R. Stewart, and Daphne Nicole Thompson.
Members of the Julia Chatfield Honor Society are given pins and gold cords to wear at graduation to commemorate their academic achievement.
