Welcome to the Rho Tau
Homepage!
Our Mission:
Rho Tau
is a club for University of Georgia undergraduates who intend to
attend physical therapy school, or have invested an interest in
the field of physical therapy. We are open to exercise science
majors as well as other majors who are interested in physical
therapy.
How to Join:
In
order to be a member of Rho
Tau this year all you have to do is:
simply attend, pay your
dues, and enroll on the Rho
Tau listserv which will provide you
excellent information about the application process. Dues are
$20 for the year and include your Rho
Tau t-shirt. This money is used for
small gifts for our speakers, food, and publicity purposes. You are able
to pay with cash or checks made out to Rho
Tau. If you are
interested in joining, send an e-mail to
a current officer for more information or visit us during one of our meetings (see
schedule). To enroll on the Rho Tau listserv, contact a
current officer with
the address you would like added.
What we
Do:
During the fall semesters, we have
speakers who are representatives from the
5 PT schools in Georgia - Emory, Georgia State University,
Armstrong Atlantic
State University, Medical College of Georgia, and North Georgia
College and
State University. These speakers come and talk to the students about their
schools'
programs and admissions requirements and also answer any
questions students may have about the programs.
In the spring semester, we have local
Athens physical therapists from different
settings (acute care, pediatric, etc.) come and speak about their
own physical therapy experiences. This is a great way to find out
about specialties, volunteer opportunities, and the wide range of
options available in the field of physical therapy.
