Micara Lewis, program director for the college's School-Age Education program, was the keynote speaker at the induction ceremony.

The chapter won several awards, including a prize for the scrapbook competition. Greg Gassaway, adviser of the college's chapter, was elected associate adviser for the N.C./Va. region).
