Eta Sigma Delta
Eta Sigma Delta (ESD) is an international honor society that recognizes exceptional academic achievement among hospitality and tourism students at the baccalaureate and master levels. Eta Sigma Delta is administered by the International Council on Hotel, Restaurant and Institution Education (I-CHRIE), the leading international association devoted to hospitality and tourism education. The ESD chapter provides professional, organizational and educational benefits that affect individual students, the hospitality program and the institution.

The professional benefits include an opportunity for outstanding students to distinguish themselves in the eyes of educators, recruiters and industry executives in an increasingly competitive industry. In addition, ESD provides a networking system among its 60+ chapters that allows for interaction and the exchange of information between students.

Educational benefits include the opportunity for ESD chapters to provide a stimulus for students to strive for academic excellence. To this end, the members of Eta Sigma Delta offer a FREE tutorial service to all hospitality management students. Contact Dr. Lea R. Dopson at 940-369-8207 or DopsonL@unt.edu for more information!
