STANDISH, ME (10/15/2010)(readMedia)-- Courtney Hoffses of Mapleton was recently inducted as a member of the Delta Epsilon Sigma National Honor Society at Saint Joseph's College. She is a junior political science major and president of the Political Science Club. She is also a member of the Social Justice Club and has participated in Spring Break Workfest, a service project alternative to the traditional spring break vacation. This year, she will lead a group to one of the service project areas. In the future, she plans to participate in the master's international program that the Peace Corps offers.

Delta Epsilon Sigma, a national scholastic honor society for students of Catholic colleges and universities, has been represented at Saint Joseph's College since 1950 by the Beta Omicron Chapter. Membership in Delta Epsilon Sigma is based on leadership, service, superior achievement in the student's academic program, 3.5 average or better based on a minimum of 63 semester-hour credits of Saint Joseph's College courses only, and the student's indications of future creditable use of that achievement in bringing the principles of a sound Christian philosophy to bear effectively upon the problems of a modern free society.

Saint Joseph's College of Maine is a Catholic liberal arts college located on Sebago Lake in Standish, Maine. The college has an undergraduate enrollment of 1,000 students and offers 30 academic majors. www.sjcme.edu
