Get Involved With Honors
Hicks Honors College Students
- The Honors Student Union (HSU) is open to all Hicks Honors College students. They host various events throughout the year and are home to several smaller Honors Interest Groups (HIGGS) such as Unidos in Honors or the Transfer Student Alliance. Join these groups for events such as movie nights, Latin-themed Just Dance, game nights, and more!
- Honors Seminar Courses are a great way for our students to get to know other Honors students as well as faculty, all while in the context of an interesting topic such as UNF Ghost Tours or Design Thinking.
- Events: the Hicks Honors College will often hold several events a semester for our students. Keep an eye on our social media, weekly Hicks Happenings newsletter, and your email for announcements!
Faculty
Faculty can engage with both Hicks Honors students and the Hicks Honors College by acting as a mentor for an Honors student or by teaching an Honors section of a class in their discipline.
Mentoring/Service
- Encourage students to complete Honors in the Major (and join the Hicks Honors College)
