MARCH RECAP
GIVING DAY 2019
This WEDNESDAY, APRIL 3rd!!
Please spread the word about Giving Day and encourage family, friends, and alumni to donate to the Honors Program page!!
This is one of the most important days to ensure financial support to the Honors Program and allows us to continue to provide opportunities to our members.
Boston Travel and Learn
From April 5-7, a group of 15 Honors Students will take part in our annual Travel and Learn Trip!
Activities include volunteering at a local soup kitchen and visiting various sites to take in the rich historic culture of Boston.
Safe travels to all those participating!
Reminder: If you are interested in going on a Travel and Learn Trip in the future, it is important that you actively attend HSA events, as such students are given preference to going on the trip.
Last Lecture
