Honors College Report
August 14, 2013

Enrollment: We should end up at or near capacity (60). We have 45 enrolled in Honors Seminar right now and have yet to enroll international students.

2+2 Program: We have established articulation agreements with SAU Tech and College of the Ouachitas. We hope to establish similar agreements with South Arkansas CC, Cossatot, Rich Mountain, National Park, and UACCH.

Poster: Our annual poster will feature the 2+2 program.

iPad app: We are collaboration with start up company empowered.com. They contacted us because of our issuing of iPads to students.

Annual pool party: The annual pool party will be held on the Tuesday after Labor Day at the Magnolia Country Club. Marlar’s Cafeteria will donate catering for the event.

NCHC Meeting: We will take 7 students and 3 faculty to the annual meeting of the National Collegiate Honors Council in New Orleans in November and will make four separate presentations.

Contracts: We will strictly enforce honors course deadlines for contracts. Too many faculty fail to return their contracts on time.

Matriculation: The date and speaker for the annual matriculation ceremony have not yet been set. We are negotiating with a possible speaker at present.
