SAU Honors College

The SAU Honors College was founded in 2003 by Dr. David Rankin, president of SAU. Dr. Lynne Belcher served as founding director and is retired from SAU. The Honors College seeks and admits qualified students who seek to pursue a serious academic program with equally gifted peers and committed teachers. Honors classes are small and provide academically enriching opportunities for students and the faculty who teach them. Currently, SAU enrolls nearly 170 honors students and graduates about 66% of admitees in four years or less. Anyone interested in applying to the Honors College or seeking further information should contact the director, Dr. Edward P. Kardas at epkardas@saumag.edu or at 870 904-8897.

SRHC Day One


SAU Bus at Love's in Prescott

Maiden voyage for this new bus driver. I never realized how many curves there are between Magnolia and Prescott on US 371 (or AR 19 for us oldsters). Managed to find an easy parking spot near the hotel too.


Here are our international students in the Peabody Little Rock.
From L to R (back): Arun Sharma, Subir Shakya, Suraj Manandhar, Pui (Joy) Tan, Thomas Kue, & Xi (Western) Wu; (front) Olawale Ajigbotafe, Nimenra Mawalagedara, & Sun (Gloria) Lee.

Hayden Kopplin and Majesta Miles attended a standing room only presentation on Lady Gaga. He'll report on that session later on. All of us ate "heavy hors d'oeuvres" tonight. We get breakfast tomorrow at 7 followed by a full day. Samson King and Courtney Fricks will present their poster as will Western Wu. Nimendra will present her paper on Saturday.

For many of the students this is their first academic meeting. This is academic engagement at its best.
