Awards and Honors

The Policy Studies Organization co-sponsors awards with the American Political Science Association and supports, through its active individual members in many places, the activities of four honorary Greek societies: Phi Beta Delta , Pi Alpha Alpha , Pi Sigma Alpha , and Phi Sigma Omega . Each of these societies has its own historic focus: Phi Beta Delta with international issues, Pi Alpha Alpha with public administration, Pi Sigma Alpha with political science, and Phi Sigma Omega with discrete issues. All are headquartered in Washington and Phi Beta Delta, Pi Sigma Alpha and Phi Sigma Omega are in the same historic New Hampshire Avenue headquarters . Collectively they are represented on about 900 university campuses and have perhaps 100,000 members.
