On April 20th, Garden City resident Marissa McCay, was inducted into Villanova University's Chapter of Alpha Epsilon Delta, the Pre-Medical Honor Society. "Membership in Alpha Epsilon Delta is an honor bestowed in recognition of superior scholastic achievement of a student and affords an opportunity to develop qualities of initiative, leadership and self-education by participating in the activities of the chapter and Society."

"The object of the Society is to encourage and recognize excellence in premedical scholarship; to stimulate an appreciation of the importance of premedical education in the study of medicine; to promote cooperation and contacts between medical and premedical students and educators in developing an adequate program of premedical education; to bind together similarly interested students; and to use its knowledge for the benefit of health organizations, charities and the community."
