Golden
Key International Honour Society is a international academic honors organization dedicated to excellence. The
Society is interdisciplinary and unites the talents of the brightest
undergraduate students in America and abroad. Outstanding faculty
administrators are active in Golden Key at both the chapter and
international levels.
Golden Key provides
recognition, prestige, scholarship, fellowship and service. The
purposes of the Society are to recognize and encourage scholastic
achievement and excellence in all undergraduate fields of study, to
unite with collegiate faculties and administrators in developing and
maintaining high standards of education, to provide economic
assistance to outstanding members by means of annual scholarships,
and to promote scholastic achievement and altruistic conduct through
voluntary service.
Membership is by invitation only. Each year, the
top 15% of juniors and seniors are invited to join the Society. Full-time, as well as
part-time, students qualify and members include
both traditional and nontraditional students.
The New Mexico State University
Chapter was chartered on April 27, 1989 (download Chapter
Bylaws). Since then, Golden Key has grown to have a
significant presence on the NMSU campus. Golden Key runs many
service projects, lectures and activities. The chapter is student
run and many opportunities for leadership and participation are
available.
