Generation Honors
Generation Honors was created to support Honors scholars from underrepresented groups such as Black, Latinx, and Indigenous backgrounds and help make the Honors College a welcoming space for everyone. Any Honors scholar interested in the mission of GH is welcome to join. The program is dedicated to supporting Honors scholars from historically underrepresented groups to develop a deep sense of community, build lasting connections and leverage key campus resources starting the summer before the first year and lasting through graduation.
Why Join Generation Honors?
Here are a few of the benefits for students:
- Summer bridge programming is offered before the start of the year for first-year students; topics include research, student life, scholarships, goal setting and support services.
- Fall weekend retreat.
- Ongoing academic, experiential and social programming.
- Peer mentoring.
Generation Honors is open to all students interested in supporting underrepresented scholars in our community, and may be joined at any time during a student's Honors career.
How to join Generation Honors?
In mid-May, information regarding this and other programs will be sent to new students who have deposited and plan to enroll in the Honors College in the fall. For currently enrolled Honors scholars, please contact your advisor for more information.
