Membership Benefits

The benefits of becoming a member of the Southern Regional Honors Council are many. Consider these:

  • Our annual conference provides an outstanding opportunity for your students to interact with honors program students from institutions across the Southeast.

  • Students often find that the conference allows them to combine attention to their chosen discipline with honors experiences that are better than national or state conferences.

  • Regional connections can be very rewarding. Networking opportunities are important for students and faculty members alike, and honors directors and deans find learning about best practices from colleagues at other institutions to be invaluable.

  • We emphasize the value of student presentations, and we can accept more student papers for oral presentations than has been possible at recent national conferences.

  • Recent conferences in St. Petersburg (2009) Greenville (2010, 2015), Little Rock (2011), Tampa (2012), Louisville (2013), Savannah (2014), Orlando (2016), Asheville (2017), Northern Virginia (2018), Memphis (2019), and Birmingham (2008, 2022) have been among our very best.

  • Becoming an SRHC member allows you to receive discounts on conference registration fees which can more than offset the cost of the annual institutional dues.

  • We provide scholarship funds for honors students from SRHC member schools who are participating in the Honors Semester or Partners in the Park programs of the National Collegiate Honors Council and small grant opportunities through the SRHC Student Scholar Grants program can help fund new features or projects for your honors program.
