Cap and Skull is a senior-year coeducational honors society at Rutgers University, founded on January 18, 1900.
Admission to Cap and Skull is dependent upon excellence in academics, athletics, the arts, and public service. Leadership as well as character are also considered crucial factors for membership. Using these criteria, only eighteen new members, or less than one-half of one percent of a Rutgers College class, are selected each year.
