Wright, Kiley. (2009). Honors College Facilities

While our honors college may still be in the growing process there is no doubt that this specific piece of the project has been completed. At Southern Arkansas University today there is an entire building dedicated strictly for the use of the honors students. This building, known as Honors Hall, includes housing, classrooms, and many other facilities just for the honors students at the University. Not only does it offer multiple services to the honors students, but the building also gives the students a chance to interact and work with students who share similar interests, all of whom are dedicated to their studies. Honors Hall provides the perfect environment for students to study, work on group projects together, or just hang out and relax. There is also an entire computer lab specifically for the honors students complete with wireless Internet and printers.


Although this seems to be the perfect area, there are a few particulars in which the Honors College could improve. Of course, these areas are very miniscule and there aren’t really any complaints to be heard of them but they still exist. You may ask how these improvements could be made or what areas should be improved upon, but a simple solution has already been put into place. Honors students have the chance to fix or install anything they feel needed using a three hundred grant given to the by the university. During class topics are discussed and by the end of the year a project will be put into motion.


Facilities for the Honors students are amazing and continue to get better everyday. The growth of the Honors College may be attributed to students and staff all over campus and this process couldn’t be done in any better way. The collaboration of all these intelligent and sincere people who only want the best for this concept is leading to a better Honors program each and every day.
