Westminster's Mortar Board Raises Money for Literacy

Members of the Westminster College Mortar Board, a junior and senior leadership and service honor society, raised $215 for a "Reading is Learning" project.

 Each year, Mortar Board collects donations to choose the Westminster College "turkey."  This year's candidates included: Dr. Neal Edman, dean of student affairs; June Pierce, registrar; Robert Latta, director of financial aid; and Beth Brooks, executive secretary for student affairs.  Brooks took the honor of being turkey for this event.

 This year's costume was made by Amanda Tanner, a junior biology major from Eldred, and other members of Mortar Board.

 Contact Ray Walling, a senior history major from Landenburg and selection chair for Mortar Board, at wallinrc@westminster.edu for more information.
