Phi Lambda Sigma

ABOUT US

Phi Lambda Sigma, the Pharmacy Leadership Society, is active in more than 76 pharmacy schools across the nation.  Its mission is simple: fostering leadership and service in an ever-changing pharmacy profession.  As members of PLS, you will have the opportunity to network with an extraordinary group of individuals who have become leaders in the profession of pharmacy, in their communities, and around the world.  Phi Lambda Sigma is a distinct privilege that only a few students receive, and its membership is based on peer recognition. There is no greater honor that one can receive other than being recognized as a leader by peers.

MEMBERSHIP

Students interested should apply after their third year in the pharmacy program.

Each member is tapped for membership in Phi Lambda Sigma because of the outstanding qualities of leadership and service that they have demonstrated in the profession of pharmacy. The symbol of the society is the key that members receive.  It bears a mortar and pestle, long recognized as the symbol of the ethical pharmacist.  The mortar and pestle, which bears the letters of Phi Lambda Sigma, is surrounded by a wreath of laurel, symbolic of leadership and wisdom.  The date of our founding, 1975, appears below the mortar and pestle.  Our colors are green and gold; green, symbolizing strength, and gold, symbolizing fineness of character.

EVENTS

Healthy Halloween is an annual event that invites elementary school children to campus where our organization can teach them about healthy eating and safety during the Halloween season.  We collaborate with various organizations on campus, each of which sets-up a station with various crafts and lessons for the children to enjoy.  Phi Lambda Sigma looks forward to working with the other organizations and to giving back to the community every year.
