Many people have heard the term Phi Beta Kappa but don’t take the time to really discern the meaning.

I think most would be surprised to find out that it requires one be fluent in a second language in addition to all of the other traits that you shared through the two links.

Thanks so much for joining me in this remarkable celebration. It means so much. Thank you. ❤️
