Probably pretty worthless.

Most of the honor societies seem to be solely for resume padding. You pay some money, get a nice cert and cord, and put it on your resume. I have been a member of several for Chemical Engineering, French, and Education, but none provided me any value beyond having it on the resume. The education one occasionally had an interesting article in their magazine. Even that, I doubt an employer made their decision, or even really had their decision swayed in any meaningful fashion, by it.

Phi Beta Kappa is the only general education honor society that might be viewed as impressive.

There are a BUNCH of "honor societies" that currently exist as money-making schemes. Unless you are likely to take a leadership role in the organization (unlikely for national societies) it is probably much better to simply list your GPA/ leadership that was so impressive in the first place.

1.3 seconds on the google will tell you yes but since Tech has a chapter - take it for what its worth.
