For the second year in a row, the Rensselaer chapter of the Society for Physics Students (SPS) has been selected by the national society as an Outstanding SPS Chapter. According to the commendation letter from the national SPS office, less than 10 percent of SPS chapters nationwide have been so honored.

The selection is based on the depth and breadth of SPS activities conducted by the Rensselaer chapter in areas such as physics research, public science outreach, physics tutoring programs, hosting and representation at physics meetings, and providing social interaction for chapter members.
