Hall Inducted Into Bachman Honor Society

2018 Apr 10

Samuel Hall, of Conway, SC, was inducted into the Bachman Honor Society at the 2018 Newberry College Awards Convocation. The Bachman Honor Society was founded on March 15, 1962 by a group of faculty who were members of Phi Beta Kappa and others who were deeply comitted to fostering high standards of scholarship. The society is named for the Reverend John Bachman, churchman and scholar, and the main guiding force in founding Newberry College.

Each year the Society inducts new members from the top eight percent of the senior class. This year thirteen seniors have been named Bachman Honor Scholars. Along with their membership certificate, inductees into the Society will receive Scarlet and Gray honor cords to be worn at commencement, designating them as Bachman Honor Scholars.

Hall is a Biology/Environmental Science major and is a member of Fellowship of Christian Athletes and the Student Advisory Board.

Hall is a captain of the Newberry College football team, was twice selected as First Team Academic All-American and is a South Atlantic Conference Elite 18 honoree.

Hall has participated with FCA in three out-reach trips to Haiti helping to build schools and churches and sharing the Christian faith.
