The South Carolina Honors College presents two awards to its alumni each year at an annual Honors College Homecoming Reception: the Distinguished Honors Alumni Award (for alumni more than 10 years removed from graduation) and the Young Honors Alumni Award (for alumni age 35 and under). We encourage you to nominate your classmates or yourself for recognition.
Each year, the graduating class of the South Carolina Honors College selects the Michael A. Hill Professor of the Year. Seniors are asked to nominate a professor who has taught a class in the Honors College, facilitated conversation and learning amongst SCHC students and has influenced the lives and careers of an Honors College student. Nomination Deadline: April 12, 2021.
Nominate your classmate who graduated more than ten years ago.
Nominate an Honors College graduate who is under 35 years old.
Please use this form for either award.
