Sigma Tau Delta

Alpha Eta Gamma is the California Lutheran University chapter of Sigma Tau Delta, the International English Honor Society. The membership lasts a lifetime and provides opportunities for scholarships, internships, and meeting like-minded people. Members may also submit papers for presentation at national conventions and regional conferences, or for publication in Sigma Tau Delta's The Rectangle and The Sigma Tau Delta Review.
