Lambda Pi Eta

Lambda Pi Eta (LPE) is the honorary society of the National Communication Association (NCA). The organization's title symbolizes the three ingredients of persuasion identified by Aristotle: Lambda = logos, or logic; Pi = pathos, or emotions; and Eta = ethos, or credibility and ethics.

The SCSU Lambda Pi Eta Chapter seeks to foster and reward outstanding scholastic achievement and to stimulate interest in the study of communication.   Membership Opportunity for students is available in the spring.
