Mortar Board

This past Sunday I was initiated into Kent State’s Laurels Chapter of Mortar Board. I encourage all juniors to apply for this organization; it’s a national college senior honor society. It stands upon scholarship, leadership, and service. We had an informational meeting on Saturday. We met the other inductees and learned more about the organization. There are 50 of us who joined for the next year. Our responsibility is to do some sort of a service projext each month for the organization. For example on April 20, we’re hosting a Bowl-A-Thon. We’re also working with Pennies for Peace and helping with different projects involving literacy. This is a great resume builder and the experience will be great. I am very excited to see what this next year will bring. All the new members have wonderful ideas and are also ready to take on the new responsibilities. On Sunday for the induction ceremony, we received our pins for graduation and a certificate. Our families came for the event and it was very official. This is a great organization; again I encourage all juniors to apply for it next spring semester.

Taking our seats for the ceremony!
