The organi- zation strives to instill a high standard of scholarship. They aim at develop- ing good classroom journalism in an effort to further promote professional journalism by improving future Writers. Unbiased thinking and a high code of ethics are other goals which the club hopes will result in forceful Writing. Members of Quill and Scroll are se- lected by recommendation from the Torch or Trump staff advisors. They also must be in the top one third of their class and pass a screening by a special committee. Most important, a candidate must have made an out- standing contribution to his publica- tion. Besides the traditional spring initia- tion, thirteen new members were brought into the journalism honorary at the beginning of the school year. Quill and Scroll president, Steve Kelley, con- gratulates Donna Hall and Debbie Petranek on their membership to the national honorary club.
