Honors Student Council

The Honors College Student Council is a student group responsible for planning social, academic, service and professional development events for Honors students. They do incredible work, including planning Geek Week and the Honors College’s involvement in Homecoming each year. This is an excellent opportunity to get more involved in Honors, network with Honors faculty and staff, and have fun!

Interested in joining the team? Potential members must be in good standing with the Honors College, be able to commit to biweekly meeting attendance and attend events as assigned throughout the semester.

For more information, contact Audrey Francis or Elizabeth Busch.
