Health Science students, faculty ‘tapped’ into Mizzou secret societies


April 28, 2025


On Friday, April 25, seven students and one faculty member of College of Health Sciences were revealed at the annual Tap Day ceremony.

In a tradition dating back to 1917, small groups of students are selected (or “tapped”) by their peers to join one of Mizzou’s six secret honorary societies. The societies — QEBH, Mystical Seven, LSV, Mortar Board, Omicron Delta Kappa and the Rollins Society — honor new members for their service, leadership and commitment to the Mizzou community.

Initiates are kept secret until Tap Day, when their identities are unveiled during a ceremony in Jesse Auditorium. Congratulations to our new taps!
