Difference between secret society and honor society

[edit]

Because there has been some confusion between secret and honor societies (above):

  • Secret society: members are not known, activities are not not known, membership selection process unknown
  • Honor society: membership list is public, mission and activities are not secret, membership rewards (honors) scholarship, leadership, and/or activities, can be general or subject specific.
