ELECTIONS TO PHI BETA KAPPA

The following twenty-two Seniors and eight Juniors have been elected to the Phi Beta Kappa Society. Scholarly achievement and scholarly promise have been the basis of election, and a conscientious attempt has been made to do justice to every eligible name. In determining the elections, scholarship grades alone have not been the ultimate grounds for decision; the difficulty of the courses taken and the student's progress throughout his college career have also received due consideration. The names are arranged alphabetically and not according to rank or order of election.

Schools and Places Represented.

Of the above men 10 come from private schools and 20 from public schools. Groton School is represented by 4 men and Browne and Nichols by 2. These two schools are the only ones which enjoy the distinction of haying more than one graduate elected to the Phi Beta Kappa this year.

While almost half of these men come from Massachusetts, six other states are represented. It is also interesting to note that the list includes three foreign countries, India. Mexico, and Turkey.
