Ford inducted into Phi Beta Kappa
GREENSBORO, N.C. – UNCG men's soccer
goalkeeper Peyton Ford
was one of 38 students inducted into UNCG's Epsilon chapter of Phi
Beta Kappa recently.
Phi Beta Kappa recognizes outstanding scholarship in the liberal
arts and sciences. Students must have the following to be inducted:
a high grade point average, at least six credit hours of a foreign
language at the intermediate level and three-fourths of the total
number of hours in courses of a genuinely liberal character, as
determined by the chapter.
In 2006, the national society named Epsilon chapter the nation's
most outstanding chapter at a public university.
Ford, who will be a redshirt senior for the Spartans for the 2012
season, finished his undergraduate career with 3.98 grade point
average majoring in political science. He recently won the Southern
Conference's Dave Hart Graduate Scholarship, named in memory of
former SoCon Commissioner Dave Hart Sr. He is also a member of
UNCG's Golden Chain Honor Society.
Ford, who minored in business, will attend UNCG's Bryan School of
Business while he completes his eligibility and will pursue an
MBA.
