My name is Sarah Nemeth, and I serve as the Director of Membership for the Honorary. We were founded this past Fall semester to recognize and honor those who identify as women or support women and have had a positive impact on their communities and Florida State University. Our name pays homage to the first full functioning year of the College for Women, which was established in 1909. 1910 marks a year where women established themselves and their vision for the college that would eventually be known as Florida State University. In 2023, Florida State continues to be a place where women of all backgrounds excel and pursue greatness. As we enter the Spring 2023 semester and open membership applications for our inaugural class, we are excited to invite the members of the Congress of Graduate Students who identify with our values and mission to apply. Because we are in our first year on campus, we would greatly appreciate your help in spreading the word about the Honorary. Please feel free to share the information below in any way you see fit, and thank you in advance. Purpose: The Nineteen Ten Honorary serves to recognize women and people who support women who have shown dedication to our values of ambition, compassion, and innovation. We strive to create an empowering community to inspire the next generation of women leaders.
