Officer Positions
The Delta Kappa Chapter of Beta Alpha Psi is a student-run organization. Members in good standing are eligible to be elected to officer positions. We maintain a number of officer positions, including officers at large, so that students can gain experience and grow their leadership skills. With this shared leadership model, no one person is tasked with carrying out too much responsibility that they are overwhelmed. We encourage all members in good standing to consider being an officer. Elections are held during the spring semester for the following academic year’s officer positions.
Delta Kappa Chapter and Scholarships
Our Chapter has earned an award as “Superior” from the BAP National Office over 14 times. Along with recognition comes a modest monetary award from BAP National that our chapter uses to help finance the Beta Alpha Psi Scholarships that are awarded at the College of Business Annual Spring Scholarships and Recognition Banquet. All members in good standing are eligible for these scholarships.
