Historical note

The Iowa Beta Chapter of the Honor Society of Agriculture, Gamma Sigma Delta, was chartered in 1913.

The membership of this chapter consists of those members of the National Society who may affiliate with the local chapter and those members who are elected into the Society by the local chapter. There are three types of elected membership in the chapter – students, faculty, and alumni. Seniors may be chosen from the College of Agriculture, the College of Veterinary Medicine and from the Department of Landscape Architecture.
