MACOMB, IL – The Eta Epsilon Chapter of Phi Beta Delta at Western Illinois University is accepting applications for membership from qualified University faculty, students, alumni and community members until Friday, Feb. 20.

The aim of Phi Beta Delta and the Eta Epsilon chapter is to recognize and encourage high professional, intellectual, academic and personal achievements in the field of international education at WIU. The WIU chapter serves to encourage international programming and to promote the exchange of ideas and information among an interdisciplinary network of faculty, staff, students, community members and alumni involved in international endeavors.

Membership for staff, faculty, community members and alums is $65 for the first year and $30 thereafter. Beginning in Spring 2015, student membership is $35 for the first year and $30 thereafter.

"We really want to include Western's students in this organization," said chapter coordinator Dana Vizdal. "They can bring a unique perspective, and this is a great way for them to network and promote globalization on the campus. We are hoping more students will apply now that we have lowered the membership fee."
