BATON ROUGE – LSU men’s basketball player Will Reese had just finished one of Thursday’s group workout sessions with the Tigers and the players were huddling with Coach Will Wade.
But there was more to this end of session huddle than on normal occasions.
Dr. Randy Gurie representing Mortar Board and two students, soon joined the huddle to continue the long-standing ceremony that initiated Reese into the prestigious group.
Mortar Board, Inc., is a national honor society that recognizes college students for their achievements in scholarship, leadership and service. It also provides opportunities for continued leadership development, promotes service to colleges and universities and encourages lifelong contributions to the global community.
