Jacob Brantley, 2011-2012 President of the Honors Student Council

The Honors Committee is entrusted with the significant task of determinining who the Presidential Scholars each year will be.  They oversee the honors program and make other crucial judgment calls as well.  Our Committee has picked the five Boe nominees who ended up winning the regional Dennis Boe awards at the Great Plains Honors Conference.  They have helped to judge the college-wide poster contests at NTCC.  Ongoing members include Joy Cooper, who as a leader of SIFE and other student organizations gives us some excellent ideas about honors program activities, Robert Fenton, our expert on student excellence, and Dr. David Rangel, a popular educator who seems to have a kind of preternatural connection with students and their needs.  The student president of the Honors Council also serves on the Honors Committee.  The current president is Presidential Scholar, Jacob Brantley.    The past  Honors Council presidents have been Cody Russell (2010-2011), Stephen Graham (2009-2010), Thibaut Guidet (2008-2009), and Donna Jessee (2007-2008).
