The other honor which Michelle has received is selection for membership in the Georgia Southern University chapter of Delta Epsilon Iota Academic Honor Society.

Students qualify for membership on the basis of academic achievement. Prospective members must have completed a minimum of 30 semester hours at an accredited college or university, while maintaining a 3.30 cumulative grade point average or a scholastic ranking within the top 15 percent of their class.
