Fourteen UNM Students Inducted into Honor Society

Tau Sigma Delta honors top 20 percent of students of architecture and allied arts

The University of New Mexico School of Architecture and Planning recently inducted 14 members into Tau Sigma Delta National Honor Society. The school’s dean, Roger Schluntz, announced induction of eight graduate and two undergraduate students into UNM’s Gamma Lambda chapter of the national organization.

Tau Sigma Delta National Honor Society is the only honor society recognized in the fields of architecture and the allied arts, which includes landscape architecture and community and regional planning.

Undergraduate inductees working toward a bachelor of arts in architecture are Mark Paz and Virginia Raybon.

Graduate inductees working toward a master of architecture are Andrew Werth, Maria Morrisey, Kenneth Marold, Terry Schreck, Garoline Itoi and Kristi Merdler.
Julie McGilvray and Amos Arber are working toward a master of landscape architecture.

Kileen Mitchell, Aaron Sussman, Nathania Tsosie and Michael Furze are pursuing a master of community and regional planning.

Tau Sigma Delta, founded in 1913 at the University of Michigan, is a member of the Association of College Honor Societies, giving Tau Sigma Delta the high rating of most distinguished honor societies in other educational fields.

Inducted students, who are nominated by the director of their respective programs, are in the top 20 percent of their class.
