The goal of the University Honors Program (UHP) is to challenge students to develop as creative and independent thinkers. In conjunction with UHP, the University Honors Student Association (UHSA) works to engage students beyond academics and to help sustain the communal aspect of the Honors Program. All honors students are members of UHSA, and all are invited and encouraged to attend events sponsored by the group. By providing events designed to create a welcoming environment for honors students outside of the classroom, UHSA seeks to build an even stronger community of honors students.

Mentor Program
