About the Dobro Slovo National Slavic Honor Society
A campus chapter was established at Berkeley on 29 October 1926 to recognize academic excellence among students of Slavic languages and cultures. In 1963, the honor society was founded with the help and encouragement of the American Association of Teachers of Slavic and East European Languages. The society recognizes academic excellence in Slavic studies. Since 1963, it has grown steadily in number of chapters and distinguished members.
