About Capital Scholar

Introduction:
Capital Scholar is an online publication produced by the Scholarship Committee of Georgetown University's National Society of Collegiate Scholars chapter.

A message from the NSCS advisor (Spring 2005):

So began the speech of John-Michael May, the National Society of Collegiate Scholars national representative, to new members at our 2004 induction. And so begins our inaugural issue of “Capital Scholar”, because this online journal for the publications of NSCS members was “created first in the mind and will” some years ago, and was brought into reality by the ”activity” of committed current members.

The role of this journal is to celebrate intellectual creativity and to create community among member scholars. NSCS members are a community of scholars on campus dedicated to the passion of ideas, and engaging the ideas of others online will ignite the creativity in all. A successful journal requires that members submit the work they believe to be cutting edge and representative of personal academic excellence.

As faculty sponsor and chapter advisor, I welcome “Capital Scholar” to the intellectual world at Georgetown, and I celebrate the efforts and will of its editors. May the passion of your mind find a place here among its electronic pages!
