Honors Students read a common book or collection of articles and/or multimedia and then come together to discuss the book with other honors students, associate deans, provosts, and faculty. These reading groups are meant to be informal and casual - food will be provided at these events to spark creativity and conversation.

There will be opportunities throughout the academic year for honors students to participate in an Honors Learning Community in which students engage in a common theme, topic, societal problem, or issue. This common theme or topic will be analyzed through in-depth course curriculum and research, lectures, panels, readings, or engaging with community and campus partners. Students will apply interdisciplinary methodology from various fields of study to expand their knowledge and to investigate solutions and put their ideas into action.
