   Mortar Board recognizes oustanding senior women in seventy-eight American colleges, and is represented on this campus with Tolo chapter. Members are chosen in their junior year on the basis of high scholarship, service to the University, and leadership. A grade point average three-tenths above the all-university average is required.
