Scholarship
Mortar Board was founded on the three ideals of
scholarship, leadership, and service. Below are highlights of
the chapter's dedication to scholarship.
Dedicating time and talent to promote scholarship within our chapter and among The Kansas State community continues to be a priority for the scholarship team. Each fall, Mortar Board honors K-State faculty, staff and advisors at the annual Faculty Recognition Reception. The 2008 Faculty Reception honorees were:
- Dr. Jennifer Bormann, College of Agriculture
- Associate Dean Lynn Ewanow, College of Architecture, Planning & Design
- Dr. John Fliter and Dr. Charles Sanders, College of Arts & Sciences
- Dr. Anand Desai, College of Business Administration
- Dr. Marjorie Hancock, College of Education
- Assistant Dean Tom Roberts, College of Engineering
- Dr. Briana Nelson Goff, College of Human Ecology
- Dr. Olivia Collins, School of Leadership Studies
- Ms. Mary Todd and Dr. Julie Yu, Student Life
One of the goals of the scholarship committee is to annually award to juniors demonstrating exemplary scholarship, leadership and service. Mortar Board members review the scholarship applications and interview the finalists. The 2008-2009 scholarship winners are:
Ashley Guenther and Melissa Woodworth
