College Honors Institute Recognizes Completers, Research Fellows, and Volunteers

Publish Date: July 20, 2022

Twenty-eight CHC students who have completed all the requirements for the College Honors Institute were recognized at a luncheon held in Crafton Hall on Friday, May 6

President Kevin Horan was on hand to place a purple Honors stole on each completer, and Division Dean Van Muse presented them with completion certificates.

Every recipient completed at least 15 Honors credits with a grade of A or B, maintained a minimum 3.25 cumulative GPA, completed 15 community service hours, and participated in Honors activities.

Eleven students were also recognized as “Honors Research Fellows.” To receive this designation, students had to attend research workshops and give a research presentation at one or more conferences. These students have an additional research patch on their Honors stoles.

The College Honors Institute is a certifying institution for the President’s Volunteer Service Award, a national recognition of individuals whose service positively impacts their communities. Five students and one faculty member were awarded bronze medals for 100-174 hours of service during the past 12 months. One student received a silver medal for 175-249 hours of service, and four received gold medals for over 250 hours.
