[ Major ] [ Minor
] [ Honors Major ] Honors Societies Phi Beta Kappa, founded in 1776, is the oldest Greek-letter scholastic honorary in American higher education. Whereas other honorary societies exist to reward scholarship in individual disciplines and in fields other than the liberal arts and sciences, Phi Beta Kappa is dedicated to the ideal of liberal learning and general education. Election to membership originates with a nomination process initiated from within the local chapter. Criteria for nomination of graduating seniors include outstanding scholarly achievement; integrity of character; and completion of a course of studies encompassing a broad range of disciplines and subject matter. Mortar Board is dedicated to promoting equal opportunities among all peoples, emphasizing the advancement of the status of women. It elects juniors based on the applicant's superior scholarship, leadership, service to the university and dedication to their ideals. Students with GPAs of 3.3 or higher may apply in January or February. ODK is a junior honorary which recognizes individuals who have attained a high standard of achievements in collegiate activities. As representatives of ODK, they encourage others to strive for attainment in scholarship, athletics, social and service activities, religious activities, campus governments, journalism and the performing arts. LSV is a secret honorary which recognizes the most outstanding senior women on the Mizzou campus who, through their individual service to the University and the community, continually strive to promote and improve the status of women. Mystical Seven, formerly a secret honor society, selects the seven most outstanding men and women on campus on the basis of their good works throughout the community and unselfish leadership ability. Golden Key National Honor Society serves as a scholastic honorary for juniors and seniors in the top 15 percent of their classes. Membership is by invitation only and is based on grade point average. Sigma Rho Sigma is an organization composed of juniors who have excelled both in academics and extra-curricular activities. The honorary's purpose is to recognize and honor these students, as well as to facilitate interaction among them in both service and social activities. |
