Honors Engagement
Honors Engagement
The Engagement requirement encourages students to explore new interests and to seek perspective on their choice of major and career, helping to lay the basis for cultural and civic life after college. This continues to bolster our learning community beyond the classroom. Honors College service, events, and activities are pre-approved by the Honors College and can be found on Engage. There are no retroactive approvals.
Every Semester Honors College Students Complete:
A Minimum of Two Hours of Campus or Community Service.
The Honors College lists the many opportunities for service on the Honors College Engage page. Campus or community service occurs close to campus and is a group effort that includes members of the Honors College. All service must be pre-approved. View our Honors College Service Guide.
