National Honor Society for Dance Arts
In 2012, Hunter was granted a chapter of the NDEO National Honor Society for Dance Arts. "The NHSDA Collegiate Program is a dance honor society for college students. It is designed to honor the accomplishments of outstanding undergraduate or graduate students studying dance as a dance major, minor, or elective. This honors the fact that many young professionals have varying interests and abilities in dance that cover a spectrum from the pursuit of dance for personal fulfillment and joy, through career preparation, to life-long learning." - www.ndeo.org
