It is equivalent to the Phi Beta Kappa Honorf'Society of the College of Arts and Sciences. Fordhamis chapter is known as Zeta of New York. It was organized in the School of Business in 1939 and was admitted to the national organization in the same year. T S - - A member of B. G. S. is considered a student among ustudentsv, member- ship being based on character as well as scholastic standing. They are chosen from the highest ten percent of the Senior class and the highest three percent of the Junior class. The purpose of the Society is threefold: to reward and encourage scholar- ship and accomplishment, to promote the advancement and spread of education in the science of business, and to foster the principle of honesty and integrity in business practice. Because of its exclusiveness B.G. S. membership is small. Beta Gamma Sigma is a close knit group that stands as a symbol for all students. . Due to time limitations we do not have the list of this year's nominees but the Class of ,E6 wishes to congratulate them in advance on a job well done.
