That is not the Fellows way. Fellows maximize the academic experience, while still fully engaging in the life of the University. Over the years, Fellows have served as Student Regent; as Internal Vice President, External Vice President, and President of Student Government; as Presidents of the Freshmen, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior classes; as presidents, Sing chairs, and other officers of fraternities and sororities; as presidents of the premed honor societies, of the BRH choir, of the Baylor Men’s Choir, and of the Mock Trial Team. Fellows have served as Welcome Week leaders and Community Leaders in dorms; worked on campus and off; dated (and married); gone on mission trips with Baylor and with their churches; worked with youth groups; led Steppin' Out; participated in varsity athletics, club sports, and intramurals; performed in choirs, bands, and orchestras; taken internships across the United States and abroad; presented research at national conferences . and we are leaving out a whole lot.

Phi Beta Kappa is the oldest and most prestigious undergraduate honors organization in the United States. Each school is required to present evidence that its educational program and academic environment "effectively quicken the mind and spirit of its students and faculty by encouraging the full development of their human capacities. Phi Beta Kappa requires that its member institutions give primary emphasis to curricula liberal in character and purpose and that courses distinguished by these qualities shall constitute the principal requirements for the bachelor's degree." AACSB International – The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business is the premier accrediting agency for bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degree programs in business administration and accounting throughout the world. AACSB International is devoted to the promotion and improvement of higher education in business administration and management. Alpha Sigma Lambda is the academic honor society for College of Professional & Liberal Arts students. This national honor society was founded in 1945 at Northwestern University. Saint Joseph's University is also a member of the Alpha Epsilon Lambda honor society, the nation's only graduate interdisciplinary honor society.
