In addition to general extracurricular activities, pharmacy students may participate in a large number of professional, cultural, and scientific programs that contribute to their professional and personal maturity. The school has chapters of two national professional fraternities, Alpha Zeta Omega and Phi Delta Chi, and one sorority, Lambda Kappa Sigma. Students who have shown academic excellence are eligible for election to the Rho Chi Society, the national pharmacy honor society. Student leaders are invited to join Phi Lambda Sigma, the national pharmacy leadership society. These groups, the local chapters of the Academy of Students of Pharmacy of the American Pharmaceutical Association, as well as the National Pharmaceutical Association, the National Community Pharmacists` Association, the American Society of Health-Systems Pharmacists, and the school itself sponsor lectures and other educational programs as well as various social gatherings for pharmacy students.
