Mortar Board Senior Honor Society seeks nominations for 2019-2020 class

Submitted by Marcia Hornung

Mortar Board National Senior Honor Society is accepting nominations for the 2019-2020 class. Nominees should be students entering senior status who strive for the ideals of scholarship, leadership and service.

Kansas State University's XIX chapter of Mortar Board is active in serving students, the campus, and the greater Manhattan community. Mortar Board offers two scholarships that are available for juniors each year, helps coordinate and speak at the new student convocation in the fall, and recognizes outstanding faculty with annual awards.

In the greater Manhattan area, Mortar Board hosts Reading is Leading, an event designed to create a fun and active learning environment for young learners to become more involved in reading and writing. Mortar Board sponsors and partners with other student organizations to serve with many other service events which directly benefit the Manhattan community. In addition to service activities, Mortar Board members benefit from professional development opportunities hosted throughout the academic year.

Faculty and staff are invited to nominate students who represent the Mortar Board ideals of scholarship, leadership and service.
