Ohio State’s Sphinx Senior Honorary organization celebrated its 100th anniversary in a two-day celebration that began Friday.
Started in 1907, Sphinx recognizes 24 students each year who demonstrate academic achievement and community involvement.
According to the Sphinx Senior Honorary Web site, Sphinx alumni pledged a $500,000 gift to the new Ohio Union to celebrate the 100th anniversary, and will be the first organization to meet in the new Ohio Union in 2010.
