Mortar Board at the University of Colorado at Boulder
Mortar Board, Inc. is a national honor society which recognizes college seniors for distinguished ability and achievement in scholarship, leadership, and service. Membership is synonymous with dedication and success. Only a select few students at the University of Colorado at Boulder are invited to join this esteemed society each year – an honor naming them among the most amazing college scholar-leaders in the United States. Mortar Board members are not only recognized as the top scholars and leaders at our university, but are presented with the unique opportunity to join a diverse group of students from vastly different disciplines and interests across universities all over the country.
Our purpose is to facilitate cooperation among a national union of senior honor societies, to contribute to the self-awareness of its members, to promote equal opportunities among all peoples, to emphasize the advancement of the status of women, to support the ideals of the university, to advance the spirit of scholarship, to recognize and encourage leadership, to provide service, and to establish the opportunity for a meaningful exchange of ideas as individuals and as a group.
Since Mortar Board’s founding in 1918, nearly a quarter of a million venerated members have held the honor of being initiated at 228 chartered chapters across the nation. Our Society provides its members with opportunities for continued leadership development, promotes service to colleges and universities and encourages lifelong contributions to the global community. Additionally, Mortar Board offers numerous benefits to members, including career networking, fellowships and awards.
We welcome you and invite you to share our tradition!
