The Student Council sponsored
the second annual Scholastic Honors Banquet in conjunction with the
annual Parent's Weekend on April
25, 1965.
Each of the honorees was presented with a commemorative
plaque. Requirements for the award
remained the same as last year.
The faculties of the various departments of the College were asked
to submit the names of the outstanding undergraduate in their
specific field. The criterion for selection, as set up by the Student Council, called for an overall average of
