Hendrix College

Hendrix College is a private college that is affiliated with the United Methodist Church, and located in Conway, Arkansas. The student body averages around 1,100 attendees, with over 80% living on campus. In recent years, more than half of the student population comes from out-of-state, chiefly from those states contiguous to Arkansas, but also as far away as Maine, Minnesota, California, Iran, and Russia. Hendrix also hosts between six and ten international exchange students each year and around 25% of graduating seniors have studied abroad. Hendrix is a member of the Associated Colleges of the South.

Social Atmosphere

There are no fraternities or sororities allowed on campus. Instead, social activities are organized around the residence halls. Another source for activities is Soco, the Social Committee. Hendrix students' tuition includes a fee which provides funding for student activities. SoCo works with a portion of this money to bring entertainers and events to campus. SoCo members are peer-elected each year and represent each hall, with an additional representative elected to represent freshmen.
