Sigma Tau Delta is the University of Delaware's English Honor Society. Our active chapter, Mu Rho, was established in 1982. Members sponsor poetry readings and guest speakers, work closely with University

of Delaware English

faculty during special programs and events, and host an annual tea for all English majors. Sigma Tau Delta's central purpose is to grant distinction upon students in the undergraduate, graduate, and professional studies of the English language and literature. Sigma Tau Delta also recognizes the accomplishments of professional writers who have contributed to the fields of language and literature.

One of the largest members of the Association of College Honor Societies, Sigma Tau Delta has close to 600 chapters, 700 faculty sponsors, and inducts approximately 7,000 members annually. Our members have the opportunity to be recognized for their outstanding achievements, enrich their education, help them make career choices, and advance their careers.
