Ahaha. I just got this in the mail on a piece of crap postcard. There are no requirements for joining. There is a blank to put in your GPA. They have a storied history that spans all the way back to 1997. Lifetime membership is only $75. Look at how gay that site is. No thanks.2/15/2006 6:51:21 PM |

Darn. The original link is broken. That's what I get for trying to duplicate the postcard.

I don't think they've updated that site since 1997. If you're going to scam people, at least make it look convincing.

I noticed the names ordered by first name too. Everything about this is lame. Golden Key and the National Society of Collegiate Scholars (similar name, different organization) are similar, but they actually do have entry standards, real chapters that hold meetings and work on projects, and slick websites with actual member benefits. Incidentally, both are cheaper than this one. 2/15/2006 11:12:50 PM |
