NSCS Monthly Newsletters January 2014 | Page 9

National Society for Collegiate Scholars January Newsletter | University of Hawai’i at Mānoa Chapter Kobs was our special Guest Speaker. As an honors student in Kinesiology, active officer in the senior honor society Mortar Board as well as a committee member in the annual Honors Society Conference, Brent’s speech gave the new inductees the extra encouragement to be the student leader that you want to be. Finally, NSCS’ new faculty advisor, Dr. Beaule, gave the Keynote Address, welcoming all of us to hear about her journey to find her passions and hobbies in life. Stories about her love of archeology and cultures of the Americas became the words of wisdom for the day and she stressed the importance of finding and doing what you enjoy. As our speakers ended their speeches, it was time to officially recognize the new inductees. One by one, NSCS scholars were called to the stage to be awarded the NSCS pin by Zach Hannah and Dr. Beaule. Following a group photo on the stage, they stood in front of their families and friends as Zach guided them through the words of the Oath of Membership. The ceremony quickly came to a close, but the NSCS lives of the new members had just begun! If you are a new member, we welcome you once again! We hope that you continue to enrich your college experience with your NSCS membership and chapter events.
