The Garnet Keys at Concordia

Each year, twelve accomplished undergraduate students join Concordia University's official honour society, the Garnet Keys. 

Members act as ambassadors of the university at awards ceremonies, Convocation and other important events. The Garnet Keys appear alongside senior administrators, prominent speakers and influential guests. They also create a lasting impact by getting involved in community projects. 

Each year, the Society evolves as a new membership forms its own personality and pursues its own sense of purpose. However, the traditional commitment to serving the university and the community remains. After an active one-year term of service, students become lifetime members. 

Why join the Garnet Keys?

Becoming a member of the Garnet Key Society can be a transformative experience.

Being a Garnet Key gave me a sense of confidence, self-esteem and courage to aspire to the possibility of higher achievement. It helped me to be in touch with an inner sense of commitment and integrity which I carried throughout my life.
