Our Vision: The Rho Chi Society seeks to advance pharmacy through sustained intellectual leadership.
Our Mission: As the academic honor society in pharmacy, the Rho Chi Society:
It is important for chapters to retain all documents and pass them down year to year. When advisors leave, these records should stay with the chapter. These are all important records to track your alumni and guide your future chapter leaders. Items to keep on file include:
What is Critical Inquiry and Intellectual Leadership?
Members exhibiting intellectual leadership are those who are systematic and analytical in their own practice and its impact, and committed to mentoring others relative to the knowledge, skills, and values of pharmacy.

The National Office is working with our Executive Council and all member chapters to implement the goals of our Strategic Plan. One new focus is building connections between Rho Chi chapter members and alumni.
With science so critical to a strong future, Rho Chi’s commitment to the pursuit of intellectual excellence and critical inquiry to advance the profession is as important now as it ever was.
During these challenging times, Rho Chi members, the best and the brightest, must rise up to herald our profession forward.
Our upcoming Centennial celebration in 2022 provides the opportunity for all Rho Chi members and alumni to commemorate our past, engage in the present and envision the future. I am excited to see how Rho Chi has impacted our members, local chapters and our profession of pharmacy!
