In order to build our Honors College community in a meaningful way across the four-year experience, Honors College Changemaking Communities engage students in community building, programs, and initiatives with a focus on socially responsible leadership - defined as individual, group, and community development for social change. By participating in a Changemaking Community, students will develop these skills and engage in building a safe and inclusive community with each other. All students are eligible to participate in a Changemaking Community and will have a dedicated Changemaking Mentor.
Honors College Residence Hall
HC Changemaking Mentors for First-Year Students are part-time, live-in student leaders within the Honors College residence hall. Mentors in Residence work to support first-year Honors College students in their transition to college life through academic success mentoring, collaborating with faculty and staff, and supporting the overall mission of the Honors College. This resource is available only to Honors College students.
Residential Communities
These communities provide an opportunity for continuing students to live and learn with like-minded students in a residentially based community with their own Changemaking Mentors. Connected as well to the overarching theme of socially responsible leadership, these communities are housed in the Livingston Apartments, Newell Apartments, Thomas Suites, and University Center at Easton Avenue Apartments.
