Pi Gamma MU

Inactive for 2018-2019.  Please contact Student Organizations (studentorgs@winthrop.edu) if you would like to reactivate this organization. 

Type of Organization: Honorary

Purpose of Organization: Our Mission is to engage and recognize superior scholarship in social science disciplines and to foster cooperation and social service among its members. Pi Gamma Mu serves the various social science disciplines which seek to understand and explain human behavior and social relationships as well as their related problems.

Description of Organization: One of the ideal of Pi Gamma Mu is Social Service, and, as the ritual for initiation states, "The pursuit of our ideals requires giving freely, fully, and joyously of our time, talent, and energy. The fruit of our scholarship, science, and idealism is reaped through service to others for the benefit of all humanity, and this, in turn, requires the cooperation, dedication, passion and participation of all people and of all the social science."
