To capture this unique moment in history, Phi Beta Kappa New York has decided to create a virtual time capsule that represents the experiences of our membership. On this page, we have photos and advice from members, essay contest winners from the Young Professionals' Recent Inductee Essay Contest, and highlights from our virtual events throughout the year. Join our trip down memory lane as we highlight the silver linings of these quarantine months.
