2019 National Convention Program Dr. U. Shivraj Sohur Scheduled to speak on Thursday evening at the convention is Dr. Shivraj Sohur. Dr. Sohur grew up in Espérance Trébuchet, on the Indian Ocean island of Mauritius. After completing his secondary schooling at Royal College of Port-Louis, he received his bachelor’s in chemistry and biology in 1992 from Angelo State University, San Angelo, Texas, where he was inducted into Alpha Chi and graduated summa cum laude. Sohur completed his M.D. and Ph.D. degrees at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee, on a full scholarship. He now serves as a faculty member at Harvard Medical School and is an attending neurologist in the Division of Movement Disorders at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH). In April 2018, he transitioned to Alkermes Inc. Research and Development, where he is helping conduct clinical trials in neuropsychiatric disorders. He is also the founding president of the 5-2035 Global Foundation for Community Health whose mission is to decrease the high rate of type II diabetes in Mauritius to only 5 percent prevalence by the year 2035. This year, thanks to recognition by his Alpha Chi chapter at Angelo State University, he is being presented with Alpha Chi’s Distinguished Alumni Award. Dr. Raymond P. Onders Dr. Raymond P. Onders, our speaker at the Saturday evening Gala, is Chief of General Surgery at University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center and Professor of Surgery at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine. Over the last 20 years, he has focused his research efforts on ways to help people with spinal cord injuries and other patients breathe naturally using their own diaphragm. Diaphragm pacing, electrical stimulation of the diaphragm muscle, was a new technology aimed at either replacing or delaying the need for mechanical ventilation or maintaining and improving normal breathing. One of his first research subjects was the late Christopher Reeve (Superman). He is honored with the Walter and Margaret Remen Chair of Surgical Innovation and is active in many surgical organizations. He earned his M.D. at Northeastern Ohio Universities College of Medicine in 1988, where he received the Distinguished Alumni Award. Dr. Onders joined the University Hospitals staff in 1997, following his service in the United States Air Force. From 2015 to 2017, he was interim Chairman Department of Surgery and Surgeon-in-Chief at University Hospitals Case Medical Center and Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine. In his present role he still manages general surgical care at 16 hospitals in the University Hospitals System across northern Ohio. Among his multiple other honors, include the Maurice Saltzman Award presented on behalf of the Mount Sinai Health Care Foundation, Crain’s Cleveland Business 2008 Health Care Heroes for Advancements in Health, the Rescuer of Humanity Award presented by Values in Action Foundation, and the ALS Association’s Bob Feller Legacy Award in 2013 for his work with Lou Gehrig’s disease.

  • 2020 National Convention Program
    Since 1922, the purpose of Alpha Chi has been to promote academic excellence and exemplary character among college and university students and to honor those who achieve such distinction. Alpha Chi accepts only students who place in the top ten percent of their class from all academic disciplines. With some 300 chapters, located in almost every state, the organization inducts approximately 10,000 members annually. The Alpha Chi Constitution & Bylaws is our governing document. The National Council is the planning and executive arm of Alpha Chi. Its membership varies but includes a constitutional minimum of eight faculty members elected by the National Convention, seven other faculty who are regional secretary-treasurers, and seven students representing their regions. From the faculty members on the Council are elected the three national officers: president, vice president, and secretary. Along with the executive director, who serves ex officio, these compose the executive committee.
