<p>Hey, does anyone know anything about college honors societies? I was just invited to delta epsilon iota and the registration fee is $68. has anyone heard of it before and is it worth it?</p>
<p>Don’t join it for the sake of putting it on your CV, but your local chapter might have some activities you are interested in. Why don’t you talk to a member of your local honor society?</p>

<p>Nah you shouldn’t; listen to the music on that website, you don’t want to be affiliated with it when you apply to grad school. Grad schools tend to lean towards applicants with pre-postmodern music tastes. Thereupon, such electronica will get you rejected from even the lowest ranked grad schools. </p>
<p>j/k. Really, if you have nothing else to do with 68 bucks do it. If not, then ignore it.</p>
<p>Phi Beta Kappa, if you get invited, is worth joining. It’s nationally known and very prestigious.</p>
<p>Other than that, if there is an honor society for those in your major it might be worth joining depending on what the chapter does at your school. Talk to a current member first. Some offer tutoring, a collection of old exams, etc. And also the chance to get to know the better students in your major (if you’re at a larger school where classes can be large).</p>
<p>What are these honor societies for anyways? Do they party?</p>
<p>Oh yes, they definitely do party (although it depends on the organization/place in question)</p>
