Twenty students from the College of Saint Benedict will be inducted into the Omega Chapter of Delta Epsilon Sigma (DES) on Friday, April 5.
A celebration of the Eucharist is at 5 p.m. at Sacred Heart Chapel, Saint Benedict’s Monastery, followed by dinner and induction ceremony in room 204, Gorecki Center, CSB.
Select CSB juniors and seniors are inducted into DES each year based on a series of criteria. Students must maintain a 3.9 grade-point average or higher on a 4.0 scale, while also being involved in the community through volunteer and extracurricular activities.
