The Honors Student Advisory Council
The Honors Student Advisory committee (SAC) aims to be the bridge between the administration and faculty of the University Honors Program and the students so that we may report back on classes, course requirements, and programming. We will promote resources and benefits available to Honors students (including, but not limited to, extracurricular opportunities, career enhancements, and financial assistance) as well as advocating for Honors students and their needs.

Favorite Honors memory: I loved our holiday party last year. I was able to eat such great snacks while enjoying everyone’s presence. I especially loved the karaoke. I remember Kai and Jadyn went up there and started singing and it felt like our PAs were really opening themselves to us. It made me feel a lot more comfortable going up to them with my concerns after that event. I also sang a little at the karaoke and took a Polaroid picture with my friends; it was so much fun!
