KDP Members
Membership:
Undergraduate and graduate students are eligible for membership. Since it is an honor society, students must meet certain criteria in order to be invited to join. Some criteria include having a certain GPA, taking at least two education courses, and being in good standing. Each September, invitations are sent to eligible students; these students can then join and be inducted into the society at the Initiation Ceremony.
