The Barbara Cook Chapter of Mortar Board is accepting nominations for the Class of 2025 until 11:59 p.m. Dec. 10.

As an honor society for senior students, Mortar Board relies heavily on the faculty and staff of Purdue for help identifying outstanding students for this opportunity. Third-year (junior classification) students are eligible for membership. Requirements include superior scholarship (GPA of 3.2 or higher), leadership and dedication to serving the University or community.

Nominations should include comments on the quality of each nominee’s leadership, scholarship and service, along with a resume. Information concerning character, initiative and scholastic achievements is helpful. 

The chapter reminds nominators of the confidential nature of the selection process and asks that nominations be kept private. In addition, nominators are asked to take into consideration Mortar Board’s continued goal of reflecting the diversity of the Purdue campus and community in its membership.

The nomination form is available online. For information or questions, email Isabella White at irwhite@purdue.edu.
