They elected me to Sigma Xi. Can’t say I recall applying, but maybe the initiative came from elsewhere. Its web site describes it as “The international honor society of science and engineering…Sigma Xi has nearly 60,000 members who were elected to membership based on their research potential or achievements.” Heard it described as the scientific research equivalent of Phi Beta Kappa, but I don’t know how accurate that is. Never followed up to become a full member, mainly because my career moved toward science education, away from these folks’ kind of research.
