Honors Program Events

At the beginning of every school year the Honors Program hosts an annual team building event. It is a chance for honors students to come together to meet other students and participate in team building activities. There are many challenges the students face throughout the day and through dedicated teamwork and a bit of fun, the honors students have no problem beating the obstacles they face.

In Fall 2018, students went to the local Irons Oaks Environmental Center to develop teambuilding leadership skills through various obstacle courses. 

Our Annual Pinning Ceremony recognizes new students into the honors program. As a social event, students are recognized among faculty, staff, and their parents. Upon recognition into the program, students receive a pin from the director.

Every semester the Governors State University Honors Program partners up with The Center for Performing Arts and has a culture night for the HP students. Tickets are made available to honors students and alumni to enjoy a night out with your fellow honors program participants! Be sure to keep a look out for the email invites and take the time to enjoy a night out!

Every April the Governors State University Honors Program holds an End of Year Celebration. It is a night of good food, good friends, and celebration! The banquet is held to recognize the honors graduates as well as other honors students who have had accomplishments throughout the school year. Be sure to come out for a much deserved night out to celebrate another year of accomplishment with the GSU honors program!
