Honors Events and News - Spring 2012

 Activities/Events

Activities and Events for Spring 2012 were developed by the Spring Planning Committee to build community within the Honors Program. Students have chosen to have two events for Honors students only.

Game Night (board games and Wii) in the East Ballroom from 7-9:30 pm on Wednesday February 22. Cookies and beverages are provided.

Don't Throw that Away! Recycling Craft Day in the East Ballroom from 3-5pm on Friday, March 16. Students will learn how to make homemade paper, bracelets, lamp shades, and tote bags through the use of recyclables from the SSU campus. This program will be a pilot, as the Honors students would like to make this a campus-wide event in the future.

Community Service

The Honors Program usually sponsors one community service project each term, but the Spring Planning Committee has chosen three sites: Habitat for Humanity, Scioto County Wide Clean-up, and Sierr's Haven (animal shelter).
