The National Society of Collegiate Scholars was established on the principle that with scholarship comes the responsibility to develop leadership and duty to perform ser– vice. Members are welcomed into NSCS at an Induction Convocation each year. During the Convocation, new members learn about the traditions of the Society and are chal– lenged to become involved in their commu– nity through leadership and service. NSCS is a highly selec tive, nonprofit organization founded a t the George Washington Univer– sity to recognize first and second year stu– den ts who excel academically . This year NSCS participated in many community service events including the San Diego AIDS Walk and the Earth Day Fair. Meetings included pizza and soda and a num– ber of very interesting and encouraging speak– ers.
