First-Year Honors College students please be sure you are checking your Shocker email account. This week you were sent important emails from Blackboard and PebblePad about setting up your PebblePad account and preparing for our first Honors Colloquium class session. We will continue to send you information for Honors Colloquium throughout the semester. Check those emails often as this is the official method of communication for all things Honors Colloquium! Questions? please email honors@wichita.edu
The Prairie Fire Marathon planning committee is looking for civic organizations/groups to volunteer for various assignments like water stations on the route. The cool thing about this opportunity is they pay the organizations $10 a volunteer for helping. Are you a member of a student group looking for extra funds for conferences or food for meetings? Email your name and the organization name to Dr. Engber Kimberly.engber@wichita.edu, and she’ll connect you to this opportunity that was sent to us by an Honors alum!
You can turn almost any course into an Honors course. The Honors Option Agreement
