NHS Assumes New Responsibilities
"They've always got their noses in books” seems to be the common understanding about members of the NHS. Nothing could be further from the truth as the current members exemplify. In fact, these members populate the rosters of many activities ranging from Varsity Football to Chess Club. As a group, NHS members have reached success in their many endeavors.
For the first time in the its history, the CBA National Honor Society became an organized group with an elected chairman and ad­ ditional responsibilities. The idea for a formal organization came from the new Academic Dean Mr. Manning. When asked why he felt there was a need for a formal organization, Mr. Manning replied, "The chances of getting things done are greater”. This sentiment was echoed by the NHS Chairman, Steve Luber. Said Luber, "This is an important step in the right direction for the NHS.”
One of the more important new functions has been acting as guides at Open House and the direction of the tutoring program. In past years, this has been a strictly volunteer activity with little or no organization. The NHS quickly took it upon themselves to rec­ tify this problem, and effectively did so under the coordination of Matt Salvatore. The program witnessed an expansion in numbers and time involved. The promise of this year's effort seems to indicate that succeeding years have a firm foundation from which to proceed.
