Sigma Pi Sigma
Sigma Pi Sigma exists to honor outstanding scholarship in
physics; to encourage interest in physics among students at all
levels; to promote an attitude of service of its members towards
their fellow students, colleagues, and the public; to provide a
fellowship of persons who have excelled in physics. Sigma Pi
Sigma's mission is not completed in the induction ceremony with
the recognition of academic accomplishment. In the four
dimensions of Honor, Encouragement, Service, and Fellowship, the
mission of Sigma Pi Sigma takes a longer view.

Sigma Pi Sigma website)
