outstanding performance in the study <strong>of</strong> business and management. The guiding principles <strong>of</strong> Beta<br />
Gamma Sigma are honor, wisdom, and earnestness.<br />
The William & Mary Chapter invites to membership only those with academic standing in the top<br />
twenty percent <strong>of</strong> our graduate programs. Dual degree students are considered for recognition based<br />
on their combined transcript. Program GPAs will not be evaluated separately.<br />
CLASS RANK<br />
It is the policy <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Mason</strong> <strong>School</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Business</strong> that class rank is not released to the students. Fulltime<br />
MBA, Flex MBA, and MAcc students will be notified if they are in the top 20% <strong>of</strong> the class<br />
through Beta Gamma Sigma. The student with the highest GPA in each program will be recognized<br />
at graduation.<br />
INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY<br />
In the event <strong>of</strong> inclement weather, the College <strong>of</strong> William & Mary will announce any closings or<br />
delayed openings on local radio stations, television stations, and on the College's home-page. If the<br />
College is closed, the Peninsula Center is also closed. Students may also obtain updated closing<br />
information by dialing (757) 221-1SNO (221-1766.) For further information and a complete list <strong>of</strong><br />
radio and television stations, please visit the College's Inclement Weather Policy at<br />
http://www.wm.edu/provost/weather.php. EMBA students should check with the Program Director<br />
for specific weekend closures. See below for more information about inclement weather for<br />
Peninsula Center courses.<br />
For courses at the Peninsula Center<br />
Please be aware that sometimes the weather differs in severity between Newport News and<br />
Williamsburg. In such instances, class cancellations will be determined by the Flex MBA Program<br />
Staff and communicated through voicemail at (757) 221-2291. If students have any questions<br />
regarding the Peninsula Center’s status, they may email the Program Coordinator for the Flex<br />
Program. As in any situation, we ask that students use their best judgment and exercise caution when<br />
severe weather occurs. If a student feels that he or she is unable to drive to or from class safely, then<br />
we ask that he or she contact the pr<strong>of</strong>essor via e-mail as well as the Flex MBA Program Staff to<br />
inform us <strong>of</strong> the decision.
