蓝色的键

Nebraska Wesleyan University’s chapter of 蓝色的键 began in 1920 as a local student honorary called “The Purple Dragon Society.” Seven years later, this group is affiliated with the national 蓝色的键 Honor Society. 蓝色的键 membership is composed of outstanding students with potential for development into active citizens; community leaders; and loyal, informed alumni. Juniors and seniors are selected by current 蓝色的键 members based on their achievements in academics, extracurricular activities, leadership and service to their communities
