We are welcoming 16 new members into Hamilton Township High School's chapter of the National Honor Society this fall. This particular induction takes the place of what should have been a spring ceremony.
To be inducted into the National Honor Society is more than just achieving a certain GPA. One must also embody the characteristics of an effective leader, whether that be in the classroom, or on the field or court or stage, or just in life in general. Beyond being a leader, students must demonstrate the good moral fiber of being dedicated to serving others at no personal gain for themselves. All of this factors into what is arguably the most important of the pillars: character. To be a member of the National Honor Society, one must be good. We unfortunately are living in a time where there is much social unrest, and it is easy to be angry and intolerant of others. National Honor Society members should be dedicated to fighting against intolerance as well as being dedicated to doing what is right, no matter how hard or unpopular it may be. They should serve as examples of kindness, humanity, and goodwill.
