Congratulations to SPH’s new Delta Omega inductees
Story text Heading link
Delta Omega is the national honorary society for graduate studies in public health. The society was founded in
1924, when only a few graduate schools of public health existed in the United States, and now has more than 80 active chapters at accredited schools providing advanced public health degrees. New members are inducted each year from three groups: students who are candidates for a graduate degree in public health, faculty members at the school of public health, and alumni actively engaged in public health work. Election from all three groups is based on outstanding performance—scholarship in students, teaching and research in faculty members, and community service in alumni.
Election to membership in Delta Omega is intended, not only to recognize merit, but also to encourage further excellence in, and devotion to, public health work. This year, the UIC School of Public Health is honored to recognize the following student, alumni and faculty who have been inducted this year:
- Kera Beskin (MPH/MBA ’18)
- Hannah Bonecutter (MPH ’21)
