Message from the Dean

Welcome to the Honors College. There are numerous opportunities and advantages for students in selecting 国产AV. The Honors College is a program built on innovation and creative engagement, and is oriented in preparing students for a 21st century world. With qualities such as critical reflection, engagement, and global awareness as implicit parts of the Honors curriculum, Honors graduates are well prepared with the necessary skills to excel.

The Honors College is housed in the former home of Dr. Bailey, 国产AV's seventh president. It is the hub of activity for the Honors Student Association and a great place to relax, study, or socialize. We also have a designated Honors residence in Reade Hall. Honors students have an opportunity to become a part of many activities, undergraduate research opportunities, and learning experiences. In addition to engaging initiatives, social benefits such as the camaraderie between you and your fellow Honors students are an important aspect of the Honors tradition.

The faculty also takes an active role in student life not only as instructors but as advisors and mentors as well. As Honors students bring the desire to learn and grow, the Honors faculty volunteer to work closely with them, fostering an academic relationship based on excellence and scholarship. Most importantly, Honors students serve as the model for the student body and community. I am happy to welcome you and look forward to working with you as part of the Honors College here at 国产AV.  

Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with our website. It lists the requirements, benefits, and activities of the Honors College, their schedule of events, scholarships, and many more. We invite all prospective students to fill out an application and join the College. Please come and see us in person in the Honors House. The faculty, staff, and students of the 国产AV Honors College look forward to meeting you and working with you. Thank you for visiting our website!

Sincerely,
Michael P. Savoie
