User:GoldenFleeceUNC/Order of the Golden Fleece at UNC-Chapel Hill

The Order of the Golden Fleece is a secret honor society founded in 1904 at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to honor student leaders at the university and to "bring about the swift resolution of University problems and to better campus life". The society is thought to be the oldest and highest honor society at UNC. Inductees are referred to as argonauts and are selected based on service to the university through "scholarship, motivation, creativity, loyalty, and leadership in academic and extracurricular pursuits". The majority of the inductees are seniors though juniors, graduate students, faculty, and alumni are also eligible for membership. Students tapped during their junior year make up the "Active Order" and perpetuate the organization by selecting those to be tapped for the upcoming year.
