The Honors Program Student Association is the student-run extension of Spelman College’s Ethel Waddell Honors Program.
Founded in 1980, the Honors Program is a collection of scholars at Spelman dedicated to intellectual curiosity, and furthering our growth as individuals through our intellectual minds.
Our program is interdisciplinary in design, recognizing the diversity of our faculty expertise and student creative scholarship. The Honors Program creates original programming and targeted support for our member students and collaborates with academic departments and programs to provide a rich array of scholarly and creative venues. These include our annual reading and lecture series, special programs and workshops for the broader campus and Atlanta community, and cultural engagements on and beyond campus.
