The 正规博彩十大网站大学 荣誉项目 provides an enriched undergraduate experience to highly motivated scholars through innovative academics, 个性化课程, 社区参与, 以及领导力发展.
We believe in service learning both inside and outside of the classroom to create leaders who will make a positive difference in the world. Our honors courses are not “harder” in the traditional sense but challenge the student to grow in directions that are shaped by their interests and opinions. These interdisciplinary courses are specifically designed to give the honors scholars more opportunities to be creative and innovative. 例如, our first-year honors seminar focuses on environmental sustainability in that students research and take part in service learning at the Permaculture Center on the Adrian Dominican Sisters Motherhouse campus.
