West.Phi Beta Kappa, the oldest national scholastic honorary, was founded at William and Mary in 1776, and this year elected twenty-one graduating seniors to its ranks from the University of Utah. The group selects its members from seniors graduating in fundamental liberal studies, which must be at least seventy-five per cent liberal arts, and who,have an overall grade point average of 3.5 or above. Records of candidates are examined by a faculty committee of Phi BetaKappa members, and electing is done by the members of Alpha chapter at the University on the basis of scholastic average, liberal studies, and character qualifications. The national society of Phi Beta Kappa sponsors a visiting lecturer, who this year came to the Utah campus. New members were honored at the honors banquet held in connection with the graduation exercises, and were initiated into the society on the evening of Baccalaureate Sunday.368 |
