NCHC Panels Accepted

Good news arrived recently. The National Collegiate Honors Council (NCHC) has accepted the two proposals SAU submitted. They will be presented at their meeting in Phoenix (October 19-23, 2011). The panels are:

• An iPad 2 for Every Student in Honors Seminar: A Pilot Program. Panelists: Edward P. Kardas, Deborah Wilson, and Suraj Manandhar
• Using the Non-Cognitive Questionnaire in Honors College Admission and Retention. Panelists: Deborah Wilson and Edward P. Kardas

The NCHC meeting is the "mother ship" venue for honors staff, faculty, and students. It is the premier locale for sharing and learning about the latest trends and findings in honors. Ms. Wilson teaches in the SAU Honors College. Suraj is the graduate assistant assigned to the college and Kardas is its director.
