About Mortar Board at Purdue University
Mortar Board, upon its founding at Syracuse University in 1918, became the first national organization
honoring senior college women. In the Fall of 1926, the Purdue Chapter of Mortar Board was chartered and
since that time has grown to preeminence in the national organization, which claims 191 college chapters.
Mortar Board remained a society for senior women until 1975 when men were permitted to be selected to its
prestigious ranks. more
Our Vision
As the 82nd class of the Barbara Cook chapter of Mortar Board, we will enrich the Purdue student experience by inspiring our diverse student body, promoting community involvement, and building lasting friendships while upholding the traditions of leadership, scholarship, and service.
