Honors Council

The Honors Council develops ideas, evaluates proposals for honors classes submitted by faculty to the respective College Honors Committees, and works closely with the Dean of the Honors College on all major aspects of the program.

The chairs of the College Honors Committees or their elected representative will act as their colleges’ representatives on the Honors Council.  Members will serve staggered three-year terms with the terms expiring at the end of the summer terms each academic year.  Two students recommended annually by students in the Honors College and appointed by the SGA will serve on the committee.  The committee elects a chair at the beginning of each year.
