The National Residence Hall Honorary (NRHH) is the premier honorary dedicated to recognizing leaders in collegiate residence halls and is as a branch of NACURH, Inc.[2] NACURH, as an organization, believes that recognition is necessary in a strong resident student community. The National Residence Hall Honorary was founded in 1964 to recognize student leaders at universities.[3]

The honorary, although a national organization, has multiple levels of leadership. The most important level is established on university campuses through the creation of chapters. NRHH chapters recognize top leaders that reside on campus through induction into their respective institution's chapter. The NRHH chapter membership allows for on and off campus members who have and continue to make positive contributions to the residence halls.[4]
