The following members have been inducted into the sisterhood throughout the years for their exemplary service to the Boston University Bands, the Eta Gamma chapter (or both). Where known, additional information is added. If any sister knows of an honorary that has been overlooked on this list (or has additional information to add), please contact the webmistress.
Dr. Lee Chrisman
Mrs. Vievia Chrisman
The Chrismans are the reason for the existence of our Boston University band program, as well as both the Eta Gamma chapter of Tau Beta Sigma and the Theta Beta chapter of Kappa Kappa Psi. We are indebted to both of them. Sadly, Dr. and Mrs. Chrisman died in the autumn of 1994. They were the first honoraries of the Eta Gamma chapter.
