Great Plains Honors Council (GPHC) 2025

March 7 - March 9, 2025

The Great Plains Honors Council (GPHC) serves as a vital network for collegiate honors programs across Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Texas. As a regional affiliate of the National Collegiate Honors Council, GPHC promotes academic excellence, collaboration, and leadership development within these honors communities.

Each year, GPHC holds its annual spring conference, bringing together students and faculty to share research, ideas, and experiences. Student presentations are a key focus, providing a platform for showcasing their academic and creative work (GPHC schedule).

As the host institution for this year’s GPHC conference, the University of North Texas is proud to welcome honors students and educators from across the region to connect, engage, and celebrate the achievements of honors education.

This year’s conference theme, “Great Plains, Greater Possibilities,” reflects the boundless potential that lies within both the region and its honors students. The Great Plains is a landscape known for its vastness and resilience, and these same qualities inspire the innovative thinking and academic excellence that define our honors programs. As we gather at the University of North Texas, we invite participants to explore how the unique characteristics of the Great Plains can fuel creativity, collaboration, and a greater future for honors education.
