How do I get involved in HCLC?
Each academic year students join HCLC committees to accomplish the goals of the organization. These committee are formed around service, programming and events, and marketing. You can be a part of as many committees as you would like and you can also volunteer to lead a project or event. Honors College students are encouraged to get involved in the activities and projects of HCLC throughout the academic year. HCLC meetings are held every other Monday at 7 p.m. in the Douglass House Multi-Purpose Room.
