The Bouchet Society seeks to develop a network of preeminent scholars who exemplify academic and personal excellence, foster environments of support, and serve as examples of CLASS : C haracter, L eadership, A dvocacy, S cholarship, and S ervice. In the spirit of Dr. Edward A. Bouchet’s commitment to these pursuits both within and beyond the academic realm, inductees into the honor society exhibit these qualities and demonstrate a commitment to advancing diversity, inclusion, access, and equity in the academy, especially by those from backgrounds historically underrepresented in higher education.
