Florida Atlantic University’s Rho Omicron Chapter of Sigma Delta Pi, the National Collegiate Hispanic Honor Society, was named the 2016 recipient of the Ignacio y Sophie Galbis Award for outstanding chapter of the 2015-16 academic year. This award was founded in 1997 to honor two individuals who dedicated their lives to Sigma Delta Pi. Ignacio, with the help of Sophie, served as Executive Secretary-Treasurer for more than 20 years (1977-1997). Each year this honor is bestowed upon a single chapter for its activities representing the highest ideals of the society.
