Building Meaningful Connections

Widgets

The Honors Program bridges the gap between courses and community. Our smaller courses translate to connections with your peers, and with events planned every month and a dedicated student lounge, there will be plenty of times where you’ll see your peers outside of the classroom setting.

Honors Student Council

Created by students for students, Honors Student Council (HSC) gives Honors students direct influence over the future of the Honors Program. Students in the HSC work closely with the Honors Director to make real decisions and develop programming that impacts students, including two of the signature Honors events each year, Harry Potter Night in November and the Spring Soiree in February. This is your chance to help lead the Honors Program. To find out more, check out HSC on Blugold Connect+.

In the Honors LLC, students were from all different majors, but we had one connecting factor, being in honors. This helped us to become friends even though we had different interests. I feel like these friendships broadened my own interests and knowledge, and encouraged me to explore broadly rather than staying in one narrow lane.

Every year, Honors students develop community service projects--like a pen pal program with an Eau Claire elementary school.

The Honors Living Learning Community

Housed in Bridgman Hall, the Honors LLC is led by a team of experienced Honors student RAs. The LLC serves as the center for the social life of Honors, combining the Honors mindset with a supportive community. We host movie nights, parties, game nights, outings, community dinners—just about everything. We’d like this to be a place that you can call home.

Leadership in the Honors Classroom and Beyond

Honors supports students in growing as leaders. Students have the opportunity to serve as an Honors Mentor working in Honors 100, our first-year experience course. In this role, junior and senior Honors students help our new freshmen find their homes on campus and figure out how to get the most out of their 澳门葡京网赌送彩金 experience. Mentors develop leadership and communication skills, build confidence, and leave a legacy by contributing to the education of other Honors students, all while earning Honors credit. 

Honors students also have the opportunity to take a special Honors leadership seminar, which supports them in developing a leadership project on or off-campus. As they learn about theory of leadership, practice techniques, and earn Honors credit, students make a concrete difference in their student organizations, Student Senate, volunteer roles, and campus jobs.
