THE NITTANY CUB VOLUME Xiii, No. 4 Wonderland By Night Is Friday Keystone Society Is Planned for Behrend A chapter of the Keystone Society will be organized on Behrend Campus sometime in the immediate future. The Keystone Society is an organization of students interested and participating in student activities at the commonwealth campuses. The Sociey encourages academic pursuits and provides for the recognition of the student who is intelligent and finds time for some, or an, extracurricular ac- tivities, as the all-around student compared to the antisocial egg head at these campuses. Any under-graduate attending a commonwealth campus who has had one full term of study and has attained a 2.5 average or better and who has no published disci plinary record and who has been active in campus service through participation in at least one chartered student activity, shall be eligible for pledgeship to the local chapter. A member of the local chapter will be formally ac cepted into the chapter at an all campus ceremony. At the ceremony the pledgee will receive the Keystone certifi cate, insignia and the Keystone keys. Letters, sweaters and hats will also be made available to members of the society.
