In addition to the academics, an essential part of the Honors Experience is providing students community service opportunities. 鈥淪tudents will meet the people of our community, serve them and serve alongside them,鈥� asserted Robbie Gaines, associate minister for Community Engagement & Athletic Ministries. 鈥淲herever our students come from, they will engage with the people, learning how to identify the needs of the community and actively serving them. Then, wherever they go from here, they will have the heart and tools to care for their neighbors. It is our commitment to 鈥榖ecome an indispensable partner to the town, county, and region.鈥� This is one way that we inspire students to do the same.鈥�

Along with their community service, the students will collaborate on an Innovation Challenge that brings classroom learning together with community engagement. Before they arrive, students will receive a prompt related to a problem affecting the community. When they come to campus, they will be divided into teams to work together on creating solutions. At the end of the week, they will present their ideas to a panel of faculty, staff and community partners.
