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.

Venice's Grand Canal

Grand Canal, Venice

The blog is back! I've been remiss in updating it.

Travel is a big part of honors education. Last June, 20 SAU students (10 from Honors College) and 13 others spent 10 days in Italy. We visited Venice, Florence, and Rome. Personally, I liked Venice the best although that was unexpected. I guess its smaller size and unique environment won me over.

I'm taking honors students to New Orleans for the annual NCHC meeting in November. In the future, you should plan to travel with us too. Watch this space!
