Crow ' s Nest A unique housing experience, the Crow ' s Nest fos- ters naval leadership among midshipmen that live in the house, as well as providing members with eco- nomical lodging.

All interested University students, faculty and staff members were welcome to join. Members used weekly testimonial meetings as their primary means of healing. They also attended special events, such as a lecture given by a promi- nent Christian Scientist from the Mother Church in Boston. In the spring, the organization handed out copies of the Christian Science Monitor to those who wanted to know more about Christian Science.

The only requirement for admission is to have been selected to a junior college Phi Theta Kappa chapter which requires at least a 3.5 grade point average for students working towards a four year degree. The University chapter had forty members last year from such varied places as New Jersey, Geor- gia, Panama and Texas. The 1975-1976 school year was the first full year of operation for the PTK chap- ter. They sent delegates to the state convention in Laredo February 13-14. The University chapter has the distinction of being one of only three Phi Theta Kappa Alumni Associ- ations in the nation, and the past year was spent trying to secure a national charter.
