Honors Program Community
An engaging community is an integral part of Mount Union’s Honors Program. Students in the Honors Program spend a lot of time together in the classroom as they complete their curriculum requirements, but the Program also seeks to create a welcoming and engaging community beyond the classroom. The Program accomplishes this through several ways, including:
- University Honors Orientation - An event at the start of the academic year that allows students to move in early and develop relationships with fellow Honors students and professors through various social and intellectual activities.
- Honors Student Housing Clusters - Housing opportunities that enable students to live near fellow Honors students in residence halls.
- Honors Council - An Honors student organization that affords students the opportunity to get involved in the Program and gain leadership experience. Through events and activities, the Council presents students with the chance to make connections with peers across the program. Council members are elected and take responsibility for various aspects of programming, activities, and information about the Program. All Honors students are invited to participate in social, cultural and service events carried out by the Council.
- Service opportunities - Through both the Honors Council and Honors classes, students are presented with the chance to volunteer and make a difference in the community.
Honors House
Conveniently located right across the street from the Hoover Price Campus Center, our beloved Honors House is the perfect place to study, hang out with friends, host an event, and more! This space is accessible to all Honors students who can also bring guests with them. Honors Council meetings are held in the House, and events hosted by Council are here as well. Occasionally, Honors classes may also meet at the House for a more relaxed setting.
The House was recently revamped and remodeled to feature individual and group study rooms on the second floor; a meeting room, living room, and kitchen space on the first floor; and a game room and activity space on the lower level.
