  • Mortar Board Honor Society - Call for Nominations

    Call for Nominations -

    The Mortar Board Selection Committee invites nominations for the Spring 2016 Membership Class. Mortar Board is a national honor society recognizing college seniors for their exemplary scholarship, leadership and service. It is committed to both service to the local and global community and educational excellence.

    Students initiated into Mortar Board are asked to uphold the 3 pillars of the organization: scholarship, service, and leadership.  In addition to upholding Mortar Boards values, students are expected to attend monthly meetings and community service projects. 

    The criteria for selection include a minimum GPA of 3.0 or top 35% of the junior class, whichever is higher, and a demonstrated commitment to scholarship, leadership and service.  Nominations for seniors, who meet the criteria aforementioned, will be accepted for the Spring 2016 membership class only. Self-nominations by students are acceptable.

    If the GPA is not known by the nominator, please nominate anyway. The Mortar Board chapter will verify GPAs.
