Ill BETA KAPPA Phi Beta Kappa, the oldest honor society in American colleges, was founded at the College of William and Mary on December 5, 1776. Election to membership is based primarily on high achievement in scholarship, and the field in which the Society operates is that of the liberal arts and sciences, as distinct from specialized professional or technical fields. Nominations for the election of candidates from the Newark Colleges are made by a member' ship committee of Alpha of New Jersey, the Rutgers Chapter with which we are aiiiliated. The commitf tee is made up of representatives of the sections of the parent chapter, including our own section. The election of seniors takes place soon after the middle of the senior year and may not exceed ten per cent of the class enrollment. The election of juniors occurs shortly after the middle of the junior year and is restricted to a maximum of two per cent of the class enrollment. Alpha of New Jersey dates from February 22, 1869.

SIGMA Xl Organized at Cornell University in 1886 to give recognition to outstanding students of science, Sigma Xi does not confine consideration to any one branch of science and lays particular emphasis on research. There are two grades of membership: associate, which indicates research promise and active, which indicates research accomplishment. An individual may be elected to active membership at any time before or after graduation when he has demonstrated suff licient research ability, and he may be elected to active mem- bership although he was never an associate member. Norm- ally, an undergraduate is elected to the associate grade only. Not more than ten per cent of the senior science majors at the Newark Colleges may be elected to member' ship. Candidates must be nominated and seconded by active members of the Rutgers Chapter. Unlike Phi Beta Kappa, high grades alone do not necessarily indicate eligibility. Research promise and originality in scientific research are the main qualifications. t Elected to the Society This Year Were Norman Glassman ......................... Biology Bert King ........ ....
