The Equity-Minded Honors Program offers academic leadership and service opportunities through deeper exploration of academic topics, learning through self-discovery and independent investigation, and association with a motivated community committed to the continual pursuit of a higher level of scholarship, knowledge, character development, community service, societal improvement, and greater understanding.
Students have the opportunity to work on a special project (25 hours total outside of the original syllabus requirements) and receive an honors coursework notation on their transcripts. The honors option is a value add for students who wish to transfer and is a great addition to a resume or personal statement for school, etc.
