The SAU Honors College admitted 56 new students this year: one from Nepal, one from Burkina Faso, seven from Texas, and the rest from Arkansas
Two of our 2016 graduates, Amanda Levin (EDUC) and Cullen Shaffer (Sci&Eng) were named the outstanding students from their respective Colleges.
Six students, William Barton, Kayla O’Neal, Zachary Hardy, Clai Morehead, Laura Nash, and McKenzie Matthews will attend the annual meeting of the National Collegiate Honors Council in October in Seattle. All students are on the program and will present student posters of honors work done at SAU.
Dr. Kardas and Mr. David Wingfield will present a faculty poster on honors students’ “bucket lists.” The Honors Seminar students write their bucket lists each year. Kardas and Wingfield’s data show how honors students think about their futures.
Honors student Taylor McNeel won the national presidency of the Future Farmers of America (FFA). Since November 2015 she has been touring the country and the world. She will return to her studies at SAU in January 2017.
Dr. Edward P. Kardas and Dr. Juping Wang spent a week in Havana in February 2016 meeting with representatives of 13 Cuban universities. Soon, SAU expects to have an exchange program in place with the University of Artemisa.Thanks to the Magnolia Walmart and Dr. Donna Allen, Kardas and Wang were able to take toys to Cuba for distribution to boys and girls there. Toys are scarce and expensive there.
