Beginning in Honors
Wednesday, November 2  |  12:00 pm

Beginning in Honors is a workshop designed for new honors directors and deans or those leading or creating new honors programs and colleges. This workshop begins  in a large group, and then breaks out to focus upon specific institutional types -- large universities; medium-sized institutions; small public, private, and faith-based colleges; and two-year institutions. 

No additional fee  |  Open to Professional Attendees 

Pre-Conference Workshop: International Education 101
Wednesday, November 2  |  2:00 pm

International study stands as a proven high impact practice. Running sustained short term experiences for groups of students can help institutionalize international experiences within honors. This pre-conference three hour workshop is designed to provide participants with collaborative time to explore issues in launching and sustaining international programming within the honors experience. We focus on two critical components of international study which are far too often overlooked: a) pre-program planning and b) post-program opportunities for participants in international study to "keep the program alive" by sharing their experiences and applying lessons learned within the context of the campus and community.

$50 Session Fee  |  Limited to 24 participants

Partners in the Parks Excursion
Thursday, November 3  |  9:00 am

Join us to explore Dealy Plaza and the 6th Floor Museum with Partners in the Parks. This excursion will include a tour of the 6th Floor Museum and a Q&A session with a museum expert. Participants will meet as a group before walking to the museum together.

$20 Fee for museum admission  |  Limited to 35 participants

City As Text™ Excursions
Thursday, November 3  |  11:00 am - 5:00 pm

Kick off #NCHC22 by exploring the streets of Dallas!  An NCHC signature event for decades, City As Text™ (CAT) positions honors students, staff, and faculty as explorers in the city.  Participants will seek to more deeply understand the conference theme, ‘Centering Community,’ through conversations and observations in Dallas neighborhoods, public spaces, and cultural landmarks. The CAT experience includes an opening session, city exploration, breakouts for writing and observations, and a group closing session.

No additional fee  |  Indicate your interest in being a CAT explorer by registering for the event on this form. When you arrive at the event, you will select your individual site.

Student Service Project
Thursday, November 3  | 11:00 am - 5:00 pm

Our 2022 celebration of 100 Acts of Service in recognition of 100 Years of Honors will culminate in a special student service project in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area: painting a mural alongside the students of Kirkpatrick Elementary School. Kirkpatrick is a very unique and special school, serving for many years as a English language immersion school for the refugee students it serves and creating community for those who have immigrated to the United States recently. The school serves as the heart of an ever-changing neighborhood and provides the much-needed support, learning and love that many of these children are needing as they immerse themselves into their new home.

No additional fee  |  Student Attendees Encouraged
Please indicate your interest by registering for the event on this form. Schedule confirmation, group size limitations, and further details will be provided to interested individuals in Fall 2022.
