Institutionele geschiedenis
Mortar Board began as the first-ever national organization honoring senior college women. At UM, it began in 1937 as another organization known as Nu Kappa Tau, which was regarded as the highest honor given to women during the time that Iron Arrow was restricted to men. In 1966, its members chose to affiliate with the National Women's Honor Society to became Mortar Board. In 1975, membership was opened to male students. Today, it is a national honor society that recognizes college seniors for their achievements in scholarship, leadership, and service.
