National Residence Hall Honorary
History
In 1964, the inaugural year of the National Residence Hall Honorary (NRHH) rooted its work in recognition initiatives to honor the accomplishments of residential student leaders. Between 1977 and 1987, NRHH grew as pins and certificates were established to honor members of NRHH. Different regional and national awards were established, included Program, National Communications Coordinator, Advisor, Student, and Resident Assistant Of The Month.
Today, over 170 chapters are affiliated with the NRHH National Office. Activities of the chapters vary from campus to campus. Some simply induct new members at an annual ceremony each year. Others are quite active on their campuses and in their communities. They coordinate leadership retreats, conferences, socials, and service-learning opportunities. They make campus home.
