Honors Community

The Honors College is about more than academics. It鈥檚 about growing the whole student, personally as well as intellectually. We bring you so many opportunities to have fun, get involved and meet likeminded people who will become lifelong friends. 

Honors Living Learning Community

The Honors Living Learning Community (LLC) is located in six wings of the brand-new Franklin Residential College and is reserved just for Honors students.

Franklin Hall

Why Live In The LLC?

  • Convenience: Attend Honors seminars right in your residential hall! Many will be held in the classroom on the first floor of Franklin.
  • Friendships: Get to know other students in the commons area, which is open to all members of the Honors College.
  • Guidance: Make the most of your college experience with the help of Honors Residential Advisors and the Honors LLC Program Coordinator. They鈥檒l work with student leaders and Honors faculty to help you blend academics with residential, social and service life.

"The Honors College community is so strong. Even after graduation, I keep in close touch with so many of the fellow Honors graduates and staff. Being around such high achieving people naturally pushed me to be better and no doubt has helped me be able to get to where I am today.鈥
