Many Red Shirts have been selected for Whos Who in American Colleges and Universities, including the first Ouachita student known to have been selected, Faunt Smith. Smith was named to Who's Who in 1937 before coming to Ouachita. Ouachita began selecting students for Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities in 1940-41. To date, Rho Sigma has placed approximately one in five of its graduates in Who's Who.
