Sigma Tau Delta is the International English Honor Society, and the University of Kentucky has a very active chapter. Our chapter acts as the English Student club, and all students are welcome to join as campus members. Our three goals are promoting fellowship, service, and scholarship. We host many events for English majors over the course of the year, and we hope to see you at one soon. We always welcome new members. Membership on campus is free. To be eligible for membership in the national organization, students must have a B (3.0) average in English and overall, they must have completed three semesters of college (or equivalent number of credit-hours) and must have taken two courses in English (beyond the 100-level). If these conditions are met, the student can fill out the membership form and pay a one-time $50.00 dues payment to Sigma Tau Delta. National members have access to publication, internship, scholarship, and leadership opportunities. Check us out and see fun photos of our activities on BBNvolved More information here |

Shale was originally founded under the name The Cat’s Figment as a Jury Project for the Gaines Center for the Humanities. Since its inception, it has been run by Gaines fellows who have successively widened the journal's reach to include more of the undergraduate creative writing community. In 2011, The Cat's Figment was renamed Shale as a nod of respect and admiration for the graduate literary journal, Limestone. The change was also to reflect our new partnership with the Writing Center, as we shared the common goal of improving the undergraduate writing community. Shale now has formed a partnership with the English Department, as well as an association with the Office of International Affairs. The latter association is to reflect Shale's new aim of incorporating poetry and prose in world languages into the creative community that we hope to foster. More information here |
