Why You Should Check Out HonorSociety.org

Have you ever been invited to join an honor society? Invitations may seem like a surprise in your inbox, given you weren't necessarily expecting them, but then again who is? Of course, you'd like to read reviews and learn more to make sure it is worth the time, effort, and dues. Let’s take a look at what makes HonorSociety.org a unique opportunity for any student looking to go further, and why College Magazine has ranked it as one of the top 5 honor societies you should join.

HonorSociety.org is a technology-driven society that helps connect members to people and opportunities to help them succeed. The mission of HonorSociety.org is to help members maximize their academic, leadership, and networking opportunities.

The benefits for members of HonorSociety.org range from career guides to travel discounts, and health and dental plan discounts. The best part about HonorSociety.org is that it is a community which recognizes its members' merits long after graduation, as members are still eligible for benefits after they receive their diploma. Members also have the opportunity to apply for scholarships for their achievements based on their GPAs, service to the community, etc., all while motivating them to maintain their high grades for future scholarship opportunities. Members also have the option to wear HonorSociety.org regalia at graduation, recognizing their membership in the society.

HonorSociety.org also has a network of partners, which includes universities, corporations, associations, and nonprofits. The society is also very active and has large followings on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn and YouTube ensuring that you can connect with the society and high achievers on your social network of choice.

Furthermore, your involvement will not only be through a computer screen— you can actually meet fellow members and alumni by attending one of the society's exclusive member trips, traveling to places such as Washington, D.C. or Los Angeles. While on their most recent trip in D.C., members enjoyed networking opportunities on Capitol Hill, a member banquet and ceremony, tours of famous memorials, historic buildings, and museums. Their next national member conference will be in October 2016 in Seattle, Washington.

Once you join HonorSociety.org, you will gain access to a personal online profile on the society's website, which will help build your personal brand on the internet. The organization also has a job search feature, which will allow you to search over 20 million jobs that range from part-time jobs to full-time positions.

The organization rewards you for dedicating time to maintaining a high GPA and achieving academic goals. If you want to be more involved, members can become featured writers and have articles published nationally. You can even get involved with the chapter at your university or start a chapter at your school by becoming a founding member. This position offers extensive leadership experience -- an essential tool for life (not to mention, it looks great on a resume). If you have been invited to join, these reasons make it clear that it's worth the time to check out HonorSociety.org.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
