The purpose of the Honors Involvement Program (HIP) is to encourage students to be engaged with the Judy Genshaft Honors College outside of the classroom. HIP is managed by the Judy Genshaft Honors College Student Council (JGHCSC). The Judy Genshaft Honors College hosts multiple events throughout the year that are geared towards promoting social connectivity between students, faculty, and staff. In addition to leadership & professional development workshops, the honors college hosts an annual art show, talent show, fall picnic, and many more! Some of the events center around study abroad, internship, and research opportunities, so please keep your eye out for those! Students who are interested in networking with other honors students, and honors faculty/staff should attend these events
Students are encouraged to attend at least five Honors events. The list of events will be updated throughout the semester and can be found through using this website. On the RSVP website, there is a drop-down menu listed under “Search by Category.” Students should be able to select events that will count towards “Involvement,” and see the entire list of events that are considered a part of the involvement program.

The top ten (10) students with the highest number of involvement Points will be invited to attend the annual Honors College Banquet. The evening includes dinner, awards, and socializing with the most involved friends, faculty, and staff of the Judy Genshaft Honors College.
