Pi Lambda Theta is an honorary organization recognizing undergraduates and graduates who are pursuing a career in education. Its purposes are to stimulate independent-thinking educators who can ask critical questions to improve educational decision-making, and to recognize persons with superior scholastic achievement and high potential for professional leadership.
Pi Lambda Theta held its first formal initiation on the TWU campus on March 9, 1951. The university’s student chapter was active through the late 1990s.
Dr. Anderson and Dr. Karen Dunlap, assistant professor of teacher education, are faculty advisers for the TWU student organization.
