                                Honors

                                            If you include an honors section in your resume, you should highlight any
                                            awards, honors, or memberships in honorary societies that you have
                                            received. (You may also incorporate this information into your education
                                            section.) Often, the honors are academic in nature, but this section also
                                            may be used for special achievements in sports, clubs, or other school
                                            activities. Always include the name of the organization awarding the honor
                                            and the date(s) received. Use the following worksheet to help you gather
