The life of
a man consists not in seeing visions and in dreaming dreams, but
in active charity and in willing service.

Alumni - Staying
Involved
We welcome Alumni into our chapter with enthusiasm. We value your experience
and appreciate your commitment to continue your support of Mortar Board
ideals.
The Alumni Sustaining Membership Dues are $25 per year. Of that amount,
Mortar Board, Inc. allocates $10 to support the operations of Mortar
Board, Inc., $10 to support the programming initiatives of the National
Foundation and $5 to the alumni or collegiate chapter of your choice.
Dues are paid and allocated on a calendar year basis.
The benefits of the Alumni Sustaining Membership include:
- Continued contact with Mortar Board even if you live in an area not
covered by alumni or collegiate chapters.
- Opportunity to support your
collegiate chapter, a local chapter, or an alumni chapter.
- Contributing
to the National Foundation in support of Leadership Initiatives and
Fellowships.
- Being involved in the nomination/awarding process of
the Alumni Achievement Awards.
- Opportunity to participate in the
annual National Conference.
- Being a part of an active alumni network
for visible extension of the Mortar Board ideals.
- Chance to enroll
in the Mortar Board credit card program which returns funds to the
Foundation Fellowship program.
Sponsorship is another way you can support the Laurels. Your financial
gift will be used to benefit the Chapter. Currently,
sponsor gifts could be used to fund National Mortar Board Conference
Travel Scholarships
and
the purchasing of our very own white initiation ceremony robes.
These topics will be discussed at our All Member Retreat and the results
will
be posted shortly.
Be sure to read our
to keep up to date on our latest activities!
Thank you to our National Mortar
Board, Inc. for the information they graciously provided for this
page.
