The organization is governed by a formal constitution and by-laws, which contain all the operational procedures of the organization. Eta Sigma Gamma is a National Health Education Honorary Society that offers a unique opportunity for pre-professionals and professionals of the highest caliber to work together toward common goals. Not only do individual members derive benefit from this professional Honor Society during the collegiate years, they also have access to an extended association with professional health educators. Members receive benefits from the Honor Society in the form of lifetime professional and social acquaintances. The purpose of this manual is to acquaint initiates with the history, governance, organization, and ideals of Eta Sigma Gamma. This manual will help initiates understand the mission and goals of the Honor Society as well as their own obligations to the organization.

  • The Use of Gamma in Place of Digamma in Ancient Greek
    Mnemosyne (2020) 1-22 brill.com/mnem The Use of Gamma in Place of Digamma in Ancient Greek Francesco Camagni University of Manchester, UK [email protected] Received August 2019 | Accepted March 2020 Abstract Originally, Ancient Greek employed the letter digamma ( ϝ) to represent the /w/ sound. Over time, this sound disappeared, alongside the digamma that denoted it. However, to transcribe those archaic, dialectal, or foreign words that still retained this sound, lexicographers employed other letters, whose sound was close enough to /w/. Among these, there is the letter gamma (γ), attested mostly but not only in the Lexicon of Hesychius. Given what we know about the sound of gamma, it is difficult to explain this use. The most straightforward hypothesis suggests that the scribes who copied these words misread the capital digamma (Ϝ) as gamma (Γ). Presenting new and old evidence of gamma used to denote digamma in Ancient Greek literary and documen- tary papyri, lexicography, and medieval manuscripts, this paper refutes this hypoth- esis, and demonstrates that a peculiar evolution in the pronunciation of gamma in Post-Classical Greek triggered a systematic use of this letter to denote the sound once represented by the digamma. Keywords Ancient Greek language – gamma – digamma – Greek phonetics – Hesychius – lexicography © Francesco Camagni, 2020 | doi:10.1163/1568525X-bja10018 This is an open access article distributed under the terms of the CC BY 4.0Downloaded license. from Brill.com09/30/2021 01:54:17PM via free access 2 Camagni 1 Introduction It is well known that many ancient Greek dialects preserved the /w/ sound into the historical period, contrary to Attic-Ionic and Koine Greek.

  • Alpha Mu Gamma Lexicon 2019 (Work in Progress—More to Come)
    Alpha Mu Gamma Lexicon 2019 (work in progress—more to come) Table of Contents Introduction Languages of the World Introduction The Romance Languages The Germanic Languages Phrasebook: Phrasebook of Languages Taught at Henderson French Spanish German Phrasebook of Languages Represented at Henderson Russian Ukrainian Italian Nepali Hindi Korean Portuguese Romanian Arabic Quechua Catalan Pidgin English Kishwali Ancient Languages and Other Alphabets Phoenician Alphabet (more to come) Other Resources, Websites, and Videos 2 | P a g e Foreword This phrasebook is intended to add flavor to Alpha Mu Gamma and strengthen the repertoire of its members. Seeing as AMG is an honors society centered on excellence and interest in foreign languages and cultures, it is only fitting, at least in my mind, that it should attempt to maintain a healthy knowledge base regarding the basics of the languages most used in the world, those taught here at Henderson, and those spoken by our international students. Having a rudimentary smattering of the geography of the major language families, from where they derive, and where they fit into the world is an important piece of the foundation of an educated and culturally informed worldview. A basic appreciation of the cornerstone languages of Western thought, Latin and Greek, also opens new avenues to explore our common hobby: the etymology of almost every word you will encounter in French and Spanish classes, as well as all mathematical and scientific terminology (and jargon), is derived from one of these two languages. Lastly, this is designed to be fun and easy to ingest! It is imperative that all future Lexicographers strive for inclusivity in creating future editions.

  • The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module B) the Letters and Pronunciation of the Greek Alphabet 2 Phonology (Part 2)
    The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module B) The Letters and Pronunciation of the Greek Alphabet 2 Phonology (Part 2) Lesson Two Overview 2.0 Introduction, 2-1 2.1 Ten Similar Letters, 2-2 2.2 Six Deceptive Greek Letters, 2-4 2.3 Nine Different Greek Letters, 2-8 2.4 History of the Greek Alphabet, 2-13 Study Guide, 2-20 2.0 Introduction Lesson One introduced the twenty-four letters of the Greek alphabet. Lesson Two continues to present the building blocks for learning Greek phonics by merging vowels and consonants into syllables. Furthermore, this lesson underscores the similarities and dissimilarities between the Greek and English alphabetical letters and their phonemes. Almost without exception, introductory Greek grammars launch into grammar and vocabulary without first firmly grounding a student in the Greek phonemic system. This approach is appropriate if a teacher is present. However, it is little help for those who are “going at it alone,” or a small group who are learning NTGreek without the aid of a teacher’s pronunciation. This grammar’s introductory lessons go to great lengths to present a full-orbed pronunciation of the Erasmian Greek phonemic system. Those who are new to the Greek language without an instructor’s guidance will welcome this help, and it will prepare them to read Greek and not simply to translate it into their language. The phonic sounds of the Greek language are required to be carefully learned. A saturation of these sounds may be accomplished by using the accompanying MP3 audio files.
