Mortar Board: The Ohio State University
 

Initiation

Initiation is a very meaningful event for both the graduating and incoming Mortar Board classes. It represents the passing of the torch from one class to the next and the importance of continuing the tradition and high standards of the honor society.  Each year, initiation begins with a reception for new members and their guests, continues with a procession around the Oval, and concludes with a ceremony at Browning Amphitheatre.

Orientation

Orientation was on the Saturday morning after we were inducted. The executive board members of the old class ran the orientation for the new members. It was basically a big get to know each other day. We did numerous ice breakers, broke down into smaller groups, and got to know each other better. We also learned about Mortar Board and its history as well. This was our first real chance to bond as a group after we had been inducted. It laid a very good foundation for the rest of the year for everybody.
